What if a person has stage 1 breast cancer with no lymph node involvemet and have estrogen and progesterone negative tumors, will chemo strongly be recommended for that person especially if they are young? Also, I would like to know are positive estrogen and progesterone tumors very slow growing tumors? Are negative tumors faster growing?


Answer:
Ok….trying to think back. I was diagnosed when I was 29. I was a stage 2 because of the size of one of the tumors. I had no lymph node involvement. I am er , I had DCIS and invasive tumors, and I am Her2 which means that my cancer was a little more agressive. I was strongly encouraged to do chemo because of my age when I was diagnosed, and I think for us early stage breast cancer folks, that is always the case….but I could be wrong. It's been 4 years and I still blame chemo brain.

Anyway, I hope I answered your questions a little. Good luck!
