Hi
I am post menopausal.
Diagnosed with DCIS ER/PR + HER2 - STAGE 0
Lumpectomy and sentinel node surgery. Doctor wanted me to try tamoxifen.I lasted two weeks. The side effects for me were horrible and life is too short. I discussed with my Dr's and they were OK with me not taking it.

There is a study that shows a 2nd cancer comes after tamoxifen. I wasn't willing to take tamoxifen.
Google for yourself
