BETH AND SUZANNE.....CONGRATULATIONS ON FINISHING YOUR CHEMO!!! I am SO happy and proud for both of you!!

Beth, I had 5 ys of Tamoxifen from 1999 to 2004. This followed my DCIS/lumpectomy/radiation. Since then I had this most recent occurrance of I-DCIS and I am now on Arimidex. I had a oophorectomy done 1 yr ago. I am considering switching to a different AI due to a "trigger finger" problem with my left thumb.
