I was diagnosed in October 2016, stage 1, grade 2, mastectomy & tamoxifen. Oncotype 15 (low risk of recurrance, 10%) Most of the time I do really well, always at the gym, not too many side effects from the medication etc. Every so often I read an article that scares the living daylights out of me & I have a meltdown. The latest article is a research paper suggesting that if you developed BC within 10 years of given birth to your last child then you have an increased risk (up to 5 times) of metastasis!!! I am now going out of my mind (my daughter was 7.5 on diagnosed) that I fit into this category despite my low recurrance score. I am not medically trained & it may be hard to interprate these statistics as I know know everyone is different. Just really need to hear some success stories please. Thanks. S
