, a close friend of mine took it, although

after a lumpectomy. She had radiation but no chemo.

She was put on Tamoxifen for 5 years. She came off it

three years ago and is cancer free. She said the

worst thing was the hot flushes - it sort of like a

double whammy menopause. It is believed to be very

effective in breast cancer prevention. Love to you

and your sister, Liz
