Hi, I don’t know if you’ve had your question answered yet, but I was strongly er/pr positive. My cancer was 100% Oestrogen positive and 70% positive. So, after surgery and chemotherapy I am on a hormone tablet to stop my body producing oestrogen and progestrogen. First I was on Anastrazole, but it made me too itchy so I have stopped taking that and I’m about to go on Tamoxifen.
