I'm not TN (ER+/PR-/HER2-). At another site someone said they are TN but Dr is ordering Arimidex after rads "just in case" and to prevent future cancers. Any TNs been treated this way? She said it was 2.1mm (yes, mm not cm) IDC

    I've never heard that but I have 5-10% ER receptors (based on remaining tumor after chemo) and am going to be on tamoxifen. My original core biopsy was triple negative (but rereading it today it looks like I may have had 1% ER at that time.) I've seen some others who are 3% being given AIs.
