    I feel better just reading
    I feel better just reading everyone's posts. I will be sure to be on with updates and my usual "wah wah". I keep thinking "i need new underwear". You think about the strangest things, must be a leftover from my mom telling me to wear clean underwear in case i had to go to the hospital. You all have been so strong, so brave to go through this, some of you 2x. oh, i hate it. My mantra today is "i am not scared". take care everyone...

    My Heart Aches for You
    Meena,

    My heart is acheing for you and tears are whelling up. If I could reach out and relieve your pain I would. When you feel a soft breaze touch your face it will be the waves of prayers coming you way from all of us. Please keep us up dated. Kathryn

    I am so sorry to hear what
    I am so sorry to hear what you are going through. Do not worry about scaring others. This board is here for all of us, especially you! Also, I think it is very helpful to encourage others to trust their instincts and push for follow up. My cancer metastasis was diagnosed 2009 after me already knowing something was very wrong with my ribs since 2005. Finally, a biopsy confirmed what I already knew--my original tumor had metastasized and was the cause of the broken ribs in 2005. I am praying and sending healing vibes your way. Please keep in touch and thank you so much for sharing.

    Hi meena
    I'm sure it's scary and devastating to go through more treatment. Prayers are with you.

    "I don't wanna work, I just want to bang on me drum all day"
    Good for you, Meena -- I know you're all-too-familiar with the difficulties of treatment that are coming up, but make sure not to forget to enjoy life -- bang on that drum all day, and, when you get tired of that, have some pizza and Ben & Jerry's!

    Let us know how we can help you though this -- you know we're all here for you.

    Traci

    Traci, you always have a way
    Traci, you always have a way to make everything seem ok.

    So sorry Meena
    Being scared, unfortunately, goes with getting the diagnosis of bc. Hearing that news twice is unimaginable. But Meena, there are so many on here that have fought it more than once, Re, Jeanne D, carkris and others. You blast the beast with everything you can and you will slay it again! Praying for you and sending you positive thoughts!

    Dear Meena, I too am sorry
    Dear Meena, I too am sorry to hear your latest news. You have been such a positive influence for me and helped me by your comments during some of my rough times. I think you are so strong and courageous and I know you will find the strength to battle this beast once again and this time once and for all get it out of your system. Pain can make us lose our focus and takes our strength so my prayer is that you get relief from the pain quickly and then you can marshall the forces you need to beat this beast. We're here for you and hope you feel the love coming thru our posts to you. Our thoughts and prayers are being lifted up for you. Take care, brave heart.

    So sorry Meena. This is
    So sorry Meena. This is just so not right. You are always so strong and positive that I pray you will continue that determined attitude. Take care and I will be praying for you!

    Hi Meena
    Meena, I just signed on for the first time ever and your post caught my eye.
    I was diagnoised with breast cancer in March of '09. i
    In april had a complete mascectomy, including 23 lymph nodes, did chemo from may thru october, chose not to do radiation and was just told i have the start of breast cancer in my other breast! I don't know who I am more upset with, my Dr or myself for not Demanding follow up tests! To this day I have never had a CAT Scan. No more blood work since October.
    I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. I wish you only the very best! To Great Health! Patty

    Pattyb1, I am so sorry that
    Pattyb1, I am so sorry that you have breast cancer in your other breast. Maybe this would not have been caught earlier. There are so many "what ifs" with cancer. Oh, I am so sorry you have to go thru this again. Do you know what your treatment plan will be? I will be starting chemo again tomorrow. I am not scared this time, I did not do too bad last time. I see this was your firs post, keep reading and posting. I have been here for awhile, i am tired this time. take care and insist on testing.

    Keep Fighting
    Good words to remember: insist on more testing if you do not feel comfortable. I am so sorry to hear about your recurrence. I pray that your treatments are successful and that you will continue to fight the cancer. (I also had a recurrence 3 years later.) Stay with us and post your feelings, both the positive and the negative.

    I am sending you my strength, warmth, love, hugs, and kisses.

    Affectionately,
    Janelle

    I just read your other post Meena about your insurance. From one bc sister to another, you fight the beast with everything you have inside of you. There has to be a solution for your insurance to pay for your chemo. Please keep us updated on you!

    So many recurrences lately
    So many recurrences lately on the board. It is so sad and so disheartening. I pray for all of you! I didn't know Janelle that you had one too. Praying that you are doing well now. How are you doing with Weight Watcher's Janelle? I must have missed your latest post.
