Anyone have a reoccurrence while 'on' Arimidex?

    I've just been diagnosed with a recurrence in the same breast after 2 years.  Apparently in the 20% that didn't respond to Arimidex.  What treatment options did others choose?

    2nd diagnosis while on Arimidex

    I have recently had a 2nd diagnosis (breast, but different pathology) after being on Arimidex

    1st Dx was lobular and hormone +

    2nd Dx is ductal and triple -

    20 yrs between Dx and about 15 years on Arimidex (after 5 yrs of Tamoxifen)

    I am so sorry your back on the rollar coaster again.  UGH.   We all remain hopeful it does not happen to us, yet we all know there is that chance and I hate it for you. 

    Keeping you in my prayers.

    Hugs,
