Re: Tamoxifen - 8-10 years?
Roz I think in your situation I also would stop. My Onc stopped me at eight years on Arimidex, but later told me to take for another two years making ten. A year later I heard five would have sufficed. I think we were one of the first to test Herceptin/Hormone pills and for now I think you've done all you could. My Onc told me the same, maybe we'll hear more in years to come but for now I think this is the present thinking.
