    I am taking Tamoxifen.  However, you might also look into Grapeseed extract, Maitake D Extract (Pro formula), and Fuicodan.

    Hi Asya,

    I am just starting the Tamoxifen and am nervous!  I also had a BMX w/reconstruction. I joined a clinical trial that randomized me for no chemo, which I am thankful for.  I also do not have to have radiation because my tumor was so small.  I am curious about why you received chemo.  Wuth your stage, tumor size and no lymph nodes, why was that your treatment?  If you don't want to share I understand.  I'm just seeing so many women on here with less cancer than I had and wondering why chemo was optional for me but not others. 

    Best wishes!
