Hello,
Your ductal carcinoma biopsy report saying infiltrating ductal carcinoma with grade 2 Progesterone and Estrogen receptor positivity means you are eligible for hormonal therapy. This hormonal therapy has very minimal side effects. (verb B2) is negative. If it comes positive then there will be targeted therapy like Herceptin.
Please consult oncologist for treatment and get clarified for more suggestions.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
