...”They want me to have chemo again. I don’t think I can do that, besides, it didn’t help last time”.....

Well you might not be here now if it hadn’t worked somewhere....

You’re decision of course, but not taking it you also know what to expect.

Sorry your facing this.....may God lead your decision according to his plans for you.

No, here’s how it went. I got breast cancer, stage 2 only because of the size of it. I had a lumpectomy in ‘12 and I was cleared of cancer. Sentinel nodes showed clear too. But I had a high risk of recurrence, according to this fairly new test, archetype DX. So they recommended chemo and radiation. So I had them. Just ruined my health, but I did it.
Now two years later, I’ve had two more cancers, at the same time apparently. So I don’t see that the chemo, whose side effects affected me greatly for two years, did me much good.
