For Newly Diagnosed - it is wonderful!!!!

or (www.drsusanloveresearchfoundation.org)

I found many, many interesting and mostly informative facts on this site....all the drugs for chemotherapy, their generic and brand name, their use, method of action, schedule and adverse effect. It has everything covered..

I also printed out "What is Lymphdema?" Very Informative.

I also printed out Cancer Recurrence/Understanding your cancer. Very Informative.

Also Medical Testing after a Recurrence......

Please check this site out, I have the book also. It is Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book. This book covers EVERYTHING!!

I am newly diagnosed (Sept.'09) and have already asked many questions on this site with so much help from members here but this website and especially this book is WONDERFUL, check it out.

    Yes Tracy,
    It's a great book! One day my husband came home from work with a little scrap piece of paper after I had been dxed. On it was some of the best info I could have gotten that early on. First was the phone number of a co worker's mother who had been recently diagnosed at the time,and the other was the title of a book called...Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book.Often after coming home from a dr's appointment,I would go to that book and look up whatever I had remembered being told.

    It is "right now" answers put in Plain English.
    I found the website and it immediately answered alot of my questions especially at my level of curiousity...Also the book certainly was helpful in reading the infamous "Pathology Report" where I am right now. I super recommend both for newly diagnosed. Thanks for your support outdoorgirl!

    Thanks Tracy. I don't have Susan Love's book yet, but, I plan on getting it. I have seen where others on here posted how good it was.
