Sue,
yes. Having a choice is hard. When it isn't a black and white decision it's just so difficult.
if it was me, the things I would consider are the cancer grade (is it 3 or 1?), your ki67 score, plus have you have the oncotype test, which you can do if your are node negative.?
I would also speak to my breast cancer nurse, and browse other breast cancer forums such as /community.breastcancer.org/ See how you feel when you hear other people's stories.
finally it depends on your feelings. Are you anxious about it returning? Or not? Are you comfortable taking the tamoxifen/AI is enough? (Those statistic things never make any sense to me)
writing down a pros and cons list can help too.
sorry you have to make this decision.
