Did you have radiation and take an AI for 5 years?

ILC usually gets one through the 1st five years cancer free

Were you over 70 when you had your lumpectomy?
Thank you for this information.
I am ILC 1B and coming off Letrozole after 2 1/4 years and have to decide what to do next.

There are absolutely no right answers as everyone is different.

That leads us to make tough decisions.

I was on AI for 7.5yrs which I asked to go on longer because I read some study that it could be helpful and I tolerated letrozole very well.
I was 48 when I was first diagnosed. 12 yrs ago they lumped lobular cancer in with all cancers and prescribed chemotherapy. Now they know chemo is not helpful for lobular- so you newly diagnosed have that going for you!
