@wews I was diagnosed with DCIS 24 years ago followed by lumpectomy and radiation. No issues until 18 months ago when nipple inverted and diagnosed with ILC. Surgeon suggested mastectomy & reconstruction. She said NO to anastrozole due to osteoporosis, yes to tamoxifen despite my mother having died of uterine cancer and my anti-depressants.
I’ve changed surgeons to one who actually discussed this with me in depth. Seeing a new med onc next week (just a week before I turn 80) to discuss options that I’m willing to accept.
We ALL have different life situations and expectations. We ALL read, research, discuss as evidenced by the discussions here! We ALL are looking for positive outcomes; not all of us get what we want.
My prayers are that each of us is let to the best possible answers as we look for guidance and support during our journeys.
Love and prayers to ALL…
