Keep in mind that age and health status seem to play a role in whether one is ofered or can tolerate chemo. In my mom's case, 4 different oncs woudl not offer her the chemo or herceptin. Mom is 68 with moderate emphysema and stage 2 er+ her2+ cancer. some seem to breeze through chemo while others have major side effects. My mom had very little problem with the radiation beyond the normal sunburn. They were surprised how well she did. She seems to have no problem with Arimidex.
