Hi everyone. Just undergone surgery for breast lump removal and four cancerous lymph nodes. Oncologist rang me and discussed preventative treatment. I need to take daily tablet to reduce oestrogen levels which he said could cause a return of the, at present clear, cancer. He's mentioned the Optima trial which I'm reading up on. My dilemma is at 70 yrs old, do I take the chemo treatment, the side effects are more acute and there's no guarantee it will work. He's recommended three weeks of radiotherapy which I'm ok with. Anyone with similar experience?
