HI In ca breast after surgery chemotherapy is needed to prevent metastasis & recurrence, and radiotherapy to prevent local recurrence. Both treatment depending upon HP & IHC report. Usually 6-8 cycle of chemotherapy will be given, depending upon age, stage, other comorbidity & general condition of patient. Send HP and IHC report for further information. Chemotherapy should be started after 1 month of operation.

Hi lybrate-user, I appreciate you seeking help for your grandmother. Presumably, her oncologist must have decided the treatment approach basis a lot of factors including her IHC study. However, should you not be convinced, you can always take an expert second opinion from one another breast oncologist asap, and decide accordingly. An integrative treatment with alternative medicines is likely to help improve clinical outcomes, as contextually possible. You can connect with detailed diagnostics, treatment history etc all for a parallel naturopathic traction as appropriate. Do take care and all the very best.
