Predict and decision about taking hormone suppressants. Letrazole and Exemestane

Hi Mazz,  Thank you for your reply.   It is difficult to make these decisions isn’t it - but it sounds  like you have made a good plan for your situation which always helps!   I’m sorry you had to go through some chemo. I was lucky - but good to know that the sessions you did have were useful.   I think I blame HRT too as I was on it for a long time after an early hysterectomy and op her to,y because of a prolapse and ah]adhesions.  I was on the pill for quite a while before that.     I’m glad they do so much research now so the next generation can benefit.   Good luck with your recovery and the anastrazole.   I know people who have had no problems too so I hope you are one of them.  With best wishes x

Predict doesn't include radiotherapy as it's presumed to be given with lumpectomy.  It would only happen after a mastectomy if the team thought it was higher risk (grade 3, in a few nodes, larger tumour,  small margins etc.  The other thing not included is lymphovascular invasion ( on pathology as LVI present or not present), which can be present with clear nodes and increases recurrence risk slightly.
