@jmab I apologize that it’s been so long since your ?? Stage 1 & I practically had to beg for that bit of info! Tumor size is 2.5mm.
Surgeon doesn’t want to do another lumpectomy; can’t have more radiation. Tamoxifen? My mother died of uterine cancer…Anastrozole? I have osteoporosis.
My ex husband just divorced me after 57 years and has convinced 3 adult kids that I need inpatient hospitalization because I’m ‘crazy.’
Because I’ll be 80 in 2 months I see know reason for ANY treatment at this juncture! However, I’m attempting to get a second opinion at the suggestion of a breast center nurse…

@mimi09 I'm so sorry you're going through all this! I hope you have some good support from friends or relatives! 2.5mm is a teeny-tiny tumor! If I were you, I don't think I'd even worry about it! But yes, if more medical info becomes available, that's always helpful. Sending you best wishes! You probably have many good years left. Here's to enjoying our lives, despite all the ups & downs!
