Hi Lia: I'm also in the same boat as you. I went to the oncologist on Wed., I'm also 2 years out from dx, and I had blood tests done to see if I'm post menopausal, and it shows I'm not. He had wanted me to go on Arimdex too. I'm currently on faslodex injections every month. I'm 49, and he's going to give me 6 more months and redo the blood test, and if I'm still not post menopausal, he wants me to get a ooph too. I've heard the surgery is easy, but I just don't want anymore surgeries. Did you have an estradiol test? Mine was at 286. Well, let us know what you've decided to do!
