Dear @sunrise_sunset
A question to your oncologist that’s been suggested is ‘what would you recommend to your spouse’. It’s your choice but expert opinion matters too. Are there any particular reasons why chemo would affect bone or heart issues for you? I did get an arrhythmia during treatment (age and some high blood pressure probably contributed) but 12 years on, my heart is functioning remarkably well. My bone density has been affected but that was 10 years of letrozole, not chemo.

Best wishes whatever you decide.
