Lynn, thanks for the info. It looks like they are going to choose a drug other than tamoxifen.

She is doing very well. Her doctors are at St. Joe's. By the grace of God this was caught in the very earliest stage. The radiologist tolld her things were fine and to come back in a year. Her gyn didn't cathc it. Her GP saw a change in her mammogram and called her to tell her he thought she should have a biopsy. Sure enough!

She had her lunpectomy and begins chemo next week. The silver lining in this cloud is that she doesn't have to do chemo! 33 radiation treatments and 5 years on a drug.

I am so proud of the way she's managing this. She's a trooper and such a blessing...as always. I love my big sis. Makes me tear up just writing about her! [Wink]

Thanks for your concern. I appreciate it. [Wink]
