This 5 yr mark seems to be critical year for reoccurrence but SO happy yours was found at an early stage! So many reoccurrences seem to be caught-why is this? Did an MRI pick up-I have dense breasts and my lobular is sneaky! Good luck-xoxo

Sorry to hear that. I’m 2.5 years on Anastrozole and having a local recurrence. Ugh

Radiation in my future which I hoped to avoid. Very concerned about side effects .
