I have one positive node, invasive ducal carcinoma ER + but it's 70 percent estrogen and 20 Progesterone. Her2neg they say stage1 tumor grade 2. Also k67 score 5-10%. Any thoughts about if my Oncotype might have a chance of coming in low? I'm so scared. The node has me really worried.

    Sounds like it will be on the lower side. Hormone meds should be good for you.

    I bet the chances are very good you will have a low Oncotype score. My oncologist says it usually correlates with the ki67. My Oncotype score was 31 and my Ki67 was 40.

    I'm not sure of the correlation, but my Ki67 was 15% (intermediate), and my Onco was 19. Hoping for a low Onco score for you!

    My Oncotype was 12 with a 17% Ki67.

    Your estrogen and progesterone percentages aren't terribly high (especially progesterone), which might affect the score to be possibly upward. I had one micromet and a score of 17 (still in the low range), but my percentages were 100% and 98%. Hope you still come out low; there are so many factors.

    DaniLind,

    I have been waiting hoping for low scores too- I am relieved in my case lymph nodes were clear. I was not told percentage of estrogen and progesterone but they are both positive.

    I am worried that it's a grade 3 and in both breasts (not metastasis)-does grade usually have anything to do with score?

    Did you get your test back? I am hopeful for you. I had a similar dx to you 4 years ago and received a 9 on my onco type. Hoping similar results for you
