Drs have conflicting views..
Hi all, really appreciate any advice on this one, have no idea which way to go. Had hormone receptive tumour, small 1.1cm, did surgery, radiation... then medical oncologist said need no more treatment...
I’m puzzled as I thought hormone receptor positive cancer patients were recommended hormone therapy - whether it’s tamoxifen or AI depends on a few factors.
Is there any other oncologist you can go to ? Is my first thought if he’s being so negative .a second opinion could be invaluable I’d also,be asking what are the alternative meds ( AI)
ive only just started on hormone therapy , my BC was triple positive , and my understanding is I’ll be on it for many years .my oncologist has covered side effects and says one can switch medication types if side effects cause issues .
Others with more understanding hopefully will,post for you too
