@melclarity. We seem to go over the same thing time and again.
I know for sure that NO amount of exercise or diet could have prevented me from a recurrence.
My first diagnosis was when I was 47. I had never had a mammogram. I was neither a young woman nor an old woman. To this day I have never had a free mammogram.
I have had Tamoxifen for 5 years and now have metastatic breast cancer.
I am very fit. I used to run but don't now because of the damage done by AC chemo.
My diet has not changed in years. I am very careful about what I eat.
So, @Harlee tell me what I could have done to avoid a recurrence?
