Hi everyone,
This is just an up-date on me. I went again yesterday and they drew more blood out of the chest area. I had a tube put back in but only lasted 2 days and it fell out so the doctor is trying not to have to put it back in. But she said yesterday that if it fills back up by Thursday I will have to have the drain tube. I don't want it but if I have to have it I will.
I just wish I would feel well again. The Arimidex is really taking a tole on me, I feel so tired and my joints are so achey, but I will get through this, I won't let it get me down. Will let everyone know if I have to have that drain tube put back in. Sorry for the delay.

    Hi Judy. I hope they can
    Hi Judy. I hope they can leave the drain tube out. I am sorry for how you feel on the Arimidex. I think everyone feels that way on it. I hope it might get better with time for you. You keep fighting! Thanks for the update.

    Hey Judy....
    Hang in there. I hope they are able to do without the drain tube. Will the SE's from the Arimidex ease up with time? I hope so. Keep us posted. ♥ Pammy

    Thanks to All
    Thanks to all of you for letting me know you care. I have a lot of compassion for all the women with breast cancer. I didnot take my Arimidex today and am going to try taking it at night instead. I hope it helps. But if not I will have to call my onc doctor. But from what I have read they all have the same side effects. I am hoping that my chest area doesn't fill up with blood again, I think it might be a littel but am hoping to get through until next week. I just don't want the drain tube back in, but I will do whatever they tell me.
    Lots of Hugs To You All,
    Judy
