I was diagnosed with a recurrence last year, 7mm tumor, ER/PR+ and HER2+, no nodes. I had a mast and was put on Tamox. I was 52 at the time still premeno and opted to have my ovaries removed so that I could take an AI. My onc did not want me to have chemo as he felt that the risks outweighed the benefits. Like CLTann, ladies like us may be in the minority. I was comfortable with my onc's decision and still am. You have to do what is right for you.
