Thank you, I appreciate your responses so much!
You might have said this already, but how far apart was the 2nd cancer from the first?
I was diagnosed in May of 2023, so I keep thinking it’s too soon for it to be back in just a little over a year, especially while taking Tamoxifen.
But I suppose stranger things have happened…..

I was first diagnosed with a DCIS in 2020. I had a lumpectomy and radiation. It returned in the same area in 2022 so more chemo followed by hormone suppressant shots and pills. It returned again late 2023 and went to a node on the opposite side. I have been on paclitaxyl since January. Fortunately I feel fine, Just not a lot of energy. I am now 75 years old so thankful that this can be controlled.
