    Am I understanding right that this is the path report of a recurrence, or of the same tumor, after some chemo? This path report has similar info to my original cancer -IDC, Grade 3, similar size,etc.

    No it is not a reoccurrence, but I did Pre-adjunctive chemo before anything else. Which I am sooooo happy I am done with chemo for now. I hope I never Need to do that again.
