Re: Aromatase Inhibitors/Weakly ER +

I'm still voting no. I'm pre-menapausal and in general after reading, and reading and reading on the internet on all sorts of hormone therapy - I can't find anything that is convincing enough to make me do it. Sorry, my opinion.
My body has been through enough and as I went through yet another Herceptin treatment yesterday - I thought, no.... not going to put my body through anymore. Enough. I'm finishing this next 8 months of Herceptin and then hoping for the best!

:-) Live strong!
Karen
