Hi Chrisy:

Thanks for the response. Yes, they are saying the kidney tumor is a new primary, and that it has been there at least since 2004, but I guess I will know for sure when the pathology comes back on it, after surgery.
My oncologist said he might switch me to Tamoxifen, since the Arimidex didn't seem to work. This new breast tumor was 70% ER positve, PR neg. and Her 2 positive. Whereas the one from three years ago on the other breast was 60% ER positive and 30% PR positive and Her 2 negative.
Thanks,
Dianne L
