Tomoxifin as preventative medicine
I come from a long line of BC. Both Mom, Sister, Aunt, Great Aunt and myself have had the disease all premenopause. My younger sister found something and has MRI and ultrasound scheduled. Her doctor is suggesting she take Tomoxifin even if he finds her scans are clean. Has anyone heard of someone taking this who does NOT have BC, but has a long family history? Also, he said he could refer her for a double mastectomy for preventative measures if she would like to do that. She does not!
