Re: Tamox or not?
LouLou,
You are not strongly estrogen positive, so if indeed you may only decrease your chance for recurrence by 2%, I do not think I'd compromise my skeleton either. Wonder if your periods will resume once you have been off of the Arimidex for a few months? After all you are only 40 years old.
