Hi
My name is Sondra, I started to write this before but I think that I did something wrong with the sending, so if you get this twice I am sorry for this. I have had 7 treatments of Zometa and been on femara for 7 months. My cancer was discovered in September 2011 and left breast removed and 13 nodes removed. Have had 6 chemo and 6 weeks of radiation which finshed at easter this year then the Zometa and Femara started. I guess I have a long way to go before the aches really start with the Femara, I do a lot of rubbing the joints and take the pain killers. I have a spot on spine and one on a rib, have scans every 3 months and see the oncologist at this time. So far they have not moved or got any bigger, so here's hoping this treatment keeps things at bay for sometime. Breast surgeon has cleared me for another year before I travel to see her again. I live up in North Queensland and get my treatment at Rockhampton nearby. Hope all is well with you, Regard Sondra
