HI Everyone
I'm from Adelaide and looking forward to meeting you all at the Summit.
I'm 8 years on from diagnosis (gee that's flown by) and in terms of treatment, mastectomy, chemo, Herceptin, radiotherapy, Arimadex for 7 years and just been put on Tamoxifen for another 3 years due to my high node involvement. Not thrilled but hey - will do what it takes.
Also had free tram flap recon done in 2011 with follow up lift and reduction in other breast, with nipple construction and tattoo. One of the hardest things I've done but so pleased I did. I really struggled with the uni-boob thing.
See you in Melbourne!
