Yes,I know how you feel - ticking time bomb.Alot of the time I can forget about it but whenever talk of future plans comes up I don't feel confident to make them. Going by my first bout of breast,it took me about 2yrs to mentally"get over it". I'm not sure what you had or when but give yourself time.I was taking flaxseed tabs after doing alot of research.It is supposed to reduce tumour growth.However,there is a question mark about taking it with tamoxifen so I have stopped.The oncologists don't seem to know about natural products nor do they want to.I try to keep an open mind.I find it interesting that my cancer returned after 7yrs.At the 6yr mammo it was all clear and I stopped flaxseed for some reason.Within 1 year it grew back to 3cms.I'm also a believer in high stress levels depleting your immune system and leaving you more vulnerable to cancer cells growing.Every woman I've talked to that has breast cancer can report being highly stressed about 18mths before their diagnosis.Interesting ay?
