[quote=Anonymous]I was premenopausal (45) when I was diagnosed with DCIS. I had a lumpectomy and decided to skip the radiation but am taking a low dose of tamoxifen. I started with the low dose and have no side effects. The biggest impact that it has on my life is that I can't do HRT, which is a huge bummer. I would suggest at least trying a AI or a low done of tamox, you can always stop taking it if it bothers you. I agree with the others about running the numbers on your chance of recurrance. I can't remember mine but I think it was something like 6% without tamox and 3% with.[/quote]
