@jaydee70 hello there. I have early breast cancer as well and the last time I spoke to my oncologist, she wanted to put me on a combination of Anastrazole and Ribociclib (and one other medication which is an injection and I am not sure of the name). I would be interested to hear about your experiences.
I live in Sydney. I have had treatment for stage 2 grade 2 hormone receptor B/C. I had 16 rounds of chemo (A/C and Taxol), two lots of surgery to clear the tumour margins in the left breast (7 cm), and axillary lymph node clearance (27 removed), and am about to start 20 rounds of radiotherapy this week. My journey has been a roller coaster.
I have a follow-up with my oncologist in the middle of March, so I can ask more questions. I will keep an eye on this thread because maybe we can all keep each other posted as we progress.
