ductal carcinoma in situ and hormone therapy replacement

A couple of months ago, I had a breast lump removed. The pathology report indicated: "intermediate to high grade ductal carcinoma in situ (solid and comedo pattern), extending focally to surgical resection margin". The surgeon then did a re-excision to take additional tissue from the area and that pathology report indicated: "negative for residual ductal carcinoma in situ". I have started radiation treatments.

I have been taking hormones (premarin & provera) for several years. Should I continue taking those hormones or should I begin taking Evista? I have two differing physician opinions.
