    Hi,

      I had the identical diagnosis that you did.  However, I was 56 years old and my oncotype was 22.  I did not have chemo but radiation and 4 1/2 yrs of arimidex so far.  My oncologist was very supportive of my decision not to have chemo.  I would get other opinions from other oncologists and balance age, family history etc.  Best of luck!
