I think 😘 I love you! What a great comment. I am over 72 and so torn about playing havoc with my older but very fit and active body. Everything thus far went swimmingly but my age might raise my side effects exponentially

@barbara1224 I enjoy my life a lot. I'm currently in Portland visiting my kids. I fly on my own and people are so very helpful to an older person. I love you back!

@barbara1224 for what it's worth, I was diagnosed with stage 1 ILC last year at age 72. I was worried about the drugs, too & convinced my oncologist to prescribe a half-dose (10 mg) of Tamoxifen which also protects bones. No real side effects. I'm also very active & do 5 Pilates classes per week. We each have to find our own path that works for us. Best wishes to you! ❤️
