I was diagnosed with 2 ductual breast lumps 2010. 1. (3mm DCSI grade 2) separated by 8mm gap 2. (4mm DCSI grade 1 with 10mm invasive ) no spread to the lymph nodes. I was very hesitatant to accept radiotherapy, or hormone therapy. I am now completing my 3 weeks radiotherapy this week, without any problems so far, but don't want to go on hormone therapy. My oncologist, says that I have a 96% survial without HT.
What are the advantages of HT for 5 years. I have no family history of breast cancer, had two children (but yes as they say had alot of stress related problems, and possibly heavy lifestyle which all adds up).
Any advice grateful. I wanted to do without radio/hormone therapies and opt for change of diet, health drinks. Wheatgrass, Flaxseed oil etc.
