THANK you for that article. It’s the closest to answering my question. It would seem that radiation OR radiation+AI drug doesn’t produce a significant difference mortality. Although this is only one person’s opinion, it doesn’t surprise me. I’ll read it several times, to understand as well as I can … and keep searching for more ino. Bottom line is, I guess, I need some serious convincing that this poisonous drug will be worth it for someone my age…so far, I am NOT convinced. The “lump” I had was never felt, by me or doctor, mammogram found it and subsequent tests confirmed. 1.6cm very deep.
