Just an update , saw my oncologist today and she says my oestrogen is extremely low (very good) but my brain signals are still not switching off my ovaries - I am 52 you would think they would have given up by now ! So another set of blood tests in 3 months to check again and may have the option of injection or oophrectomy to remove my ovaries - what she did say was that she would still keep me on Tamoxifen as recent reports suggest staying on this longer when you are borderline or just into the menopause is more beneficial than changing straight away to an AI
