Hi Punkinsue! I am also an RN. After my surgery, I was anticipating chemo and radiation and ended up needing neither which was a bigger surprise than the diagnosis for me. I hope all goes well at your initial meeting with oncology. They told me I had a 30% chance of not needing chemo/radiation and I ended up not needing it! So who knows. Keep us posted! Denise
