[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I declined tamoxifen and have no regrets. I’m premenopausal and there is a calculator that your doctor can run to tell you your risk of reoccurrence with different treatments and combinations. I had a lumpectomy and radiation and taking tamoxifen would barely make a difference in chances of recurrence. Also, as far as the poster mentioning mastectomy, [b]the long term outcomes for DCIS are worse for mastectomy than for lumpectomy and radiation[/b]. [/quote] I’m sure my friend’s breast cancer specialist would have appreciated your perspective. At any rate, my friend is eight years out and doing well. This is an example of one.[/quote]
