Hi, my mum was diagnosed Oct 2020 with a 3cm breast lump, lymph noves clear and was hormone receptive so started taking Letrozole with the hope of it reducing the tumour, we returned to oncologist in the Dec, no change in size and await a catch up phone call on 7 May with conversation regarding possibility or radiotherapy.
In theory this is a possibility but mum has quite a history in that she has recovered from sclc which was diagnosed in 2013, she now also has recurrent bladder cancer and has treatment via turbt and had an evar stent fitted three years ago due to aortic aneurysm, mum is 78 and has poor mobility cannot manage a flight of stairs and due to chemo and radiotherapy for sclc her breathing is on the copd scale. Our concern is side effects of radiotherapy or can mum stay on letrozole as in keeping the cancer at bay? Mum lives with me and my family so I am her main carer, So if any one has any advice of similar experience or wisdom, it would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
