I too think about quality of life and how my day to day life might be affected. I am 64 and this is my 3rd lumpectomy. They talked about mastectomy but as long as it’s staying in the duct (by being caught early) I would rather not go that route. Since I seem prone to BC, I think shutting down the estrogen is my best hope to stop it so I am leaning towards giving it a try and see how I do.

As everyone has their own experience on AI’s it’s best to follow the advice of your oncologist and see what your experience is. I am at one year and doing well… and hopefully blocking new breast cancer from developing!

I posted my experience on another feed, on this topic, this morning.

Hope you have a good experience as many of us do. 🌸

May I ask how you monitor? How often do you have mammos, MRIs etc? You’ve been able to catch it early all 3 times. Thank you.
