Hi All. Just got my onco testing results and the score was 15, so oncologist said no to chemo...

I'll start rads soon...as soon as they figure out what's going on with the mass on my ovaries...one issue down, still more to go...

But I have to celebrate the good news...I have already called my hairdresser for an appointment...I wasn't going to if I was going to get chemo...but, now I'll get a cut and highlights on Tuesday...:)

Hoping for more good news...

Hope all is well.

    That is
    wonderful news. You do deserve to celebrate and getting your hair done sounds like a great way to do that. I will keep a good thought that all turns out well with your other problem.

    By all means
    celebrate no chemo! I hope the mass on your ovaries is nothing to be concerned about. Rads goes by fairly quick even though it initially seems like forever.
