Ticked Off
It just really irks me that she thinks she knows more than my surgeon and oncologists that I needed unnecessary rads.All my cancer was taken out and if the margins weren't clear enough, I know they would have told me. My surgeon takes quite an aggressive approach to any cancer (even more aggresive than my oncologist). I blocked this woman again but boy did I let her get under my skin...

So sorry you have had to put up with that
I can't imagine anyone receiving ANY kind of cancer diagnosis and not feeling all of the fears and emotions that go with that word. That word holds so much power in our world, it turns our lives upside down and changes them forever.
I am glad you got her blocked again and sorry that you had to put up with that nonsense, your treatment plan is between you and your physicians....I doubt that she had M.D. behind her name.
Take care,

A few bad fruit spoils the bushel!
I go there occasionaly - it's usually a "witch fight" with several who think they know more than any DR in the world. Definately (to me) not a place of healing and growth.
Don't them get to you - they are just a bunch (not all at the site but the most boistrous, know everything ones) who make themselves feel like they are above everyone else with their little tirades.
Ignore them!

Thanks Rague. Yeah I have read their cat fights, but they are usually in forums I don't go to. I stick primarily to DCIS, Reconstruction alternatives, and a bit on the sugerical forum cuz they have PMPS thread going where I found quite a few women with it too. I sometime venture off into other areas, too, but I pick and choose to what I like, am familiar with etc.I usually don't get into the pettiness I see, but this woman was in my business, you know? And you are right, it didn't "feel" like she was doing it to help me but be contradictoy, toot her own horn and stir things up with me...It feels good to get it off my chest here, lol, where I know it wont become a big thing with a bunch of people arguing.0 -

I'm sorry
It never ceases to amaze me how ignorant people can be.... The only saving grace it that I am also amazed at times by the compassion others show. Try not to let the ignorant people win! There are way more caring, compassionate, warm and friendly people.

yeah Cinn
I tried that site too and didn't stay for the same reasons. And it was really cliquish too. I always felt awful afterwards and they seemed more interested in drama than anything else. You got your buddies here and its good. Always glad to see you around.0 -

Wow... I only belong to one board and it's this one. I luckily hit the nail on the head the first time and didn't feel the need to join any others. I guess I got lucky the first time around and found you guys right away...

I too had DCIS/ lumpectomy and radiation and on tamoxifen (3 yrs now)
some people say JUST DCIS...but to me I went through cancer/ surgery/treatments-mainly since it was caught so early..
NO matter what we have to deal with a lot, as you know..

I'm glad you blocked these people. I try only to surround myself with supportive, loving people. As said before, we all have enough to deal with without listening to a bunch of troublemakers. Keep yourself on the pink sister bus and know that we all will love you and support you whenever you need us.
Hugs
