Hi

Although I have "known" you forever, are you or were you ever hormone positive? I am just thinking out loud on whether you should add an AI (if postmenopausal). Even if you started out negative, you may no longer be hormone negative. And your bones are involved which gets me thinking because hormone positive BC likes the bones very much. Let me know your thoughts and we can discuss this on your thread.

Big hugs.
