Femara and Crestor

Hi,  I too am sorry to hear of your diagnosis.  I was diagnosed with a Grade 2 Lobular carcinoma just four years ago at age 50.  I had a mastectomy and a sentimel node biopsy done where they removed 4 nodes and found a tiny bit of cancer in one of them.  Five days later I had more surgery to remove another 12 and thankfully they were all clear. A month later I started chemo and had 6 treatments, 3 weeks apart and then radium for 5 weeks,  as my cancer was very close to the chest wall.  I had my yearly mammo and ultrasound this week and all was good.

I know only too well how you must be feeling.  I fell into a big heap for about a month.  I can only reiterate Debbie's good advice, go with the flow, take one day at a time and yes you will be stronger and life will be a little different.  There is still not a day goes by when I don't think about my cancer journey but I try to keep busy and have a wonderful network of family and friends.

Best wishes to you as you begin your journey.  Stay in touch and we can all help each other.
