@jmab I am not taking endocrine drugs (aromatase inhibitors). I am 78, and my Oncoscore was very favorable as to not having a recurrence, and I did that other test that they have on the Internet. To each is own. We have to live with our decisions. I am a caregiver for a husband with endstage kidney disease. We do home hemodialysis. I cannot have brain fog, tiredness, nausea or the other gastro-intestinal side effects.

@pacentro I completely understand & I think you're right not to tax yourself with heavy-duty meds at this point in your life, when all of your signs are favorable for a full recovery. I think I will start with 5 mgs of Tamoxifen & if it's ok, work up to 10 mgs. I can imagine my oncologist's face when I tell him that at my appt this week! He won't be happy. But it's all such a personal journey & as you say, not 1 size fits all. I appreciate your thoughts & I wish you & your husband all the best! Thanks for weighing in.
