Is there anyone that had estrogen positive cancer, without use of AI?

@windyshores , I’m not familiar with the Breast Cancer Index test. I’m almost 3 years post mastectomy. Took Anastrozole 2 1/2 yrs. Taking a break from it going on 3 months. Would the test be beneficial for me to request from my oncologist?
Also when speaking about Femara what did you mean by ‘estrogen undetected’? When I have had estrogen tests done as my insistence, results come babe ‘< 10’ which means nothing to me as o diner have baseline of pre medication value. Dr tells me “that’s good”. 🤷♀️🤔

@sequoia I would ask your doctor. I would also call the BCI company (Biotheranostics). I was told it was intended for those who took AI's for 5 years but maybe it would be allowed and helpful for you.
The language in the Femara insert uses the word "undetectable." I don't know what <10 means in that regard. It sounds like your levels were either low, negligible or undetectable!
