@marygb I recently finished 5-day radiation course & will begin soon with 10 mg of Tamoxifen daily. I'm 72 & stage 1. Hoping to protect my bones & hoping I can tolerate the 10 mg pills!

@jmab , I have ILC, stage 1, grade 2. I had a lumpectomy and 16 radiation treatments. Started Anastrazole and that made me extremely achy. I found out I had osteoporosis and was unwilling to take bone meds due to side effects. I have been on 5 mg Tamoxifen for 5 months and am tolerating it. I am 65. I can’t believe this is all they have to offer . I did read on here somewhere there’s a new medication that’s in it’s 4th clinical trial that appears more promising. Prayers, Mary
