PET/CT Scan jitters
HI Pinks ... Here I go again. 4 months into my diagnosis and still doing the test mambo! I had a CT Scan 2 weeks ago that show lung nodules. Went to a thoracic surgeon because the radiology report said "concern for pulmonary mets". The surgeon said the nodules are small (less than 7mm) but one of the nodules was semi…

Metabolizing Tamoxifen
I had Estrogen Positive Breast Cancer; Stage 1; Node negative (thank god). Because I was under 50 years of age and it was infiltrating ductal with lympho-vascular invasion, it was recommended that I do chemo and radiation. I did the chemo ( 4 cycles of AC and Cytoxin), 37 radiation treatments and then started tamoxifen.…

The gift that keeps on giving (Worry anyway)
This sassa-frassa-rassin disease. I went in for my baseline mammo on the lumpectomy breast, and what should show up but micro-calcifications. I was so sure I was done with bc. Dagnappit! Truth be known I still could be done with bc. According to the surgeon some micro-calcifications are just a part of scar tissue. But some…

Marriage problems
Ok, so I've been married for 20 yrs and have 2 teenagers (1 boy, 1 girl). My marriage has been pretty good over the years however I feel like it went downhill after my BC diagnosis in 2010. Initially, my husband didn't want to tell ANYONE. To this day, he has not told anyone at his work nor some of his friends. He did go…

Catching up
Our Christmas started out REALLY rocky but turned out very nice. Hard to believe I could find any joy in the mess that my brain is right now. Still have unexpected quick onset tears...Xanax, Xanax, Xanax. Will try to verify more of what I think I heard when I see my regular RO tomorrow, then start processing again. To all…

Update... Great Onc appt
Whoot Whoot!!!! I had an excellent appt. I do have lymphadena in my chest on the cancer side though. He showed me a massage to do & said to do it 3 times a day for 20 minutes at a time. Other than that he said I'm doing EXCELLENT & I don't have to see him for 6 months. That in itself is a miracle because in August when he…

Update
I thought that I would update for anyone still paying attention. The good news: no cancer news. I'm due for a 6 month mammo but I don't have insurance so I need to fix that first. It is interesting as always. When we last left you dear reader, we were on the Navajo reservation in NM. Now my husband, myself and the 3 cats…

Tamoxifen
Hi all... YES, it's been WAY too long since I checked out the boards, let alone posted anything. I guess I need to be more consistent... because I truly enjoy all the postings and shares and info here. OK, Tuesday was my last radiation! (I had a total of 28). YEA! I'm a little burnt and working through that. I'm still on…

The New Normal
2 years ago at this time I was in the throws of chemo, had no hair, ached from head to toe, had an aversion to smells and foods and felt quite bloated. I was also dealing with a raging infection at the surgical site and took antibiotics for 8 months. I went thru all the necessary motions and almost 2 years later I'm still…
