After trying 3 different AI drugs, and discussion with oncologist, I stopped taking everything due side effects. Because I had surgery, chemo and radiation, my reoccurrence rate is low. I do rechecks every 6 months. Now over 5 years since first diagnosed.
My sister had small tumor, stage 0 or 1, she just had a lumpectomy, her reoccurrence rate is higher because she just had lumpectomy. She stayed on AIs.
I had genetic testing, and no genes that indicate it was inherited.
Everybody has to weight risk vs side effects and discuss with provider.
