I broke up with my oncologist today.
Or more to the point, she broke up with me. She said you've hit the 5 year mark and you don't have to come in anymore, you can stop the tablets whenever you'd like. :smile:

@Caz1 Mine was fairly straight forward I think. A lumpectomy/no node involvement, radiation and hormone tablets. There was one node last year that was a bit iffy and they had trouble testing, but they said it was negative.
It does feel weird. I didn't mind going in to the hospital for my checkups, they were all such lovely people. I still have to go in for my mammo & breast clinic appointments, but the oncologist said she'd discharge me to Breastscreen for future mammos (from next year). I thought Breastscreen didn't do it if we have a history of bc, so I don't know!
