Re: What about non-orthodox "cures"? Have you tried?

There are no guarantees that tamoxifen will keep the cancer from returning, but there are studies and trials,etc that show it definitely reduces the risk of recurrence. It would not have been approved by the FDA if there was no proof.

You stated that "I tried to make my sis study this site, but she hasn't shown any interest"
That seemed to me that maybe you were pushing too hard.
