Take anastrozole for the rest or your life?

I have another question? Are the people that are doing the BCI and Oncotype having genetic testing done before? I had the Oncotype test done after the second time I had BC. I was not aware of it the first time which was 2007. My score was low enough that I did not have to do chemo. After I had that test I had genetic testing done because it was a second time I had cancer. I have the CHEK2 genetic mutation. So my feeling is that neither one of those test could accurately predict anything for me. My assumption is that most of the people that are doing this testing have not had genetic testing done. So how does this work out in that case? So you think that you are doing something to relieve your anxiety and give you some peace of mind, and basically, I am wondering if we are not just a huge experiment.

I had genetic testing before. Zero markers for ANY cancers and no family history. My body didn’t get the memo.
