Yahoo!! Today is 35 of 35 and then I'm done! What will I do? Probably just go back to working all day without taking a break for radiation, but still... Yipee.

Now, on to Arimidex.

Thanks for all your support,

Victoria

    Victoria, I can tell you
    Victoria, I can tell you from experience that this is a milestone worth celebrating. Congratulations!! Just a reminder to continue to use your cream for a couple more weeks. I have been on Arimidex for 4 months and have virtually no side effects. Wishing the same for you!!

    Hugs,

    Celebrating too
    I know how you feel...just finished a few weeks ago myself. So many celebrated this milestone with me!! CONGRATS to you also on your milestone!!

    I started Arimidex 2 wks ago.

    NOTE: I used EMU oil for the skin healing..WONDERS!! amazing healing results. EMU can be taken orally in tablet form also for many ailments. Do a search ladies on this..amazing.

    My Rad/Onc said not to use it DURING Rads..for obvious reasons the oil on the skin hindering the radiation affect.

    However, EMU does soak into the skin does not lay on top as a layer thus moisturizing dry skin and sores. I had sores where my STICKERS were placed and healed very quickly. I had been using pure Aloa Vera but this was much better. GNC carries it..I think $20 a bottle but last for a long time. A little goes a loong way. Hope this helps.

    Congrats on finishing rads. Today was supposed to be #18 for me but as soon as I walked into the radiation room, the lights came on and I was informed that the machine was broken. Something about city water being too warm. Anyway, I may have to postpone tomorrow also. It's kind of nice to have a small break, but pushes my goal back some.
