Tamoxifin and her2/neu+ gals
Anyone on Tamoxifin. I have been looking into the cyp2d6 test. Tamoxifin metabolizing test, because I have heard through other boards that we her2/ neu gals might not get the same benefits from Tamox. If I am a poor metabolizer, I might lean towards an ooph and AI's. This sound familiar to anyone? Heard anything about this?
