@sdbonniea123 I am 72 & was diagnosed in August with stage 1 ILC. My tumor was 7 mm & I also had no visible lymph involvement. I had a clean lumpectomy, a 5-day radiation treatment & I take a half-dose (10 mg) of Tamoxifen, which helps protect my bones & has not given me any bad side effects. Some women our age with early-stage breast cancer choose to forgo hormone therapy & I was nervous about it too. But I have 14 pets that need me to stick around long-term & so, this is my treatment plan! It's been a pretty easy road for me (So far! Fingers crossed!).
