    She does not require any additional treatment but she needs evaluation of both bone  and cardiac health

    I would consider switching the tamoxifen to an aromatase inhibitor 
    Recommend germline genetic testing

    because 25% of breast cancer cases are in liason with high level of cholesterol check it and if it is high use Simvastatin .

    Agree with AI and OFS instead of tam plus OFS given benefit of this approach seen in SOFT/TEXT. Not sure if she would have qualified for monarchE trial (if 1-3 positive nodes had to have grade 3, tumor size equal/over 5cm or high ki-67 and this info is not provided) but this would be something to discuss as well, barring any insurance coverage issues.

    She had grade 1 tumor, 2.5 cm size tumor and ki-67 was 10%.
