[quote=Anonymous]I was stage 0 DCIS and started tamoxifen after the lumpectomy and radiation. I went in for my 6 month routine follow up mamo and there was another spot. It worked out incredible well timing wise. The radiologist was able to fit me in for a biopsy the next day and my results were sent to my breast surgeon before my scheduled follow up appoint. As with all busy people today, she had not read my chart before walking into the exam room---she was expecting an easy follow up. Boy, was she surprised when she found herself reading new biopsy results. She consulted with my oncologist and they recommended taking me off tamoxifen since it didn't seem to be working. I had a double mastectomy a few weeks later.[/quote]
