Tennille, my heart goes out to you, I can't imagine how you are feeling. I had a recurrence at 4yrs and currently 2yrs clear. @onemargie that's the tough part there are no ideas that alert you, my Oncologist told me if I have any unusual pain that doesnt subside for a period of time to let him know. That's it! I had my Oncologist checkup last week, I was taken off Arimidex and put on Aromasin due to side effects. I feel GREAT! exercising everyday, saw a Naturopath, got myself back on track and changed my diet. I have NEVER felt better, lost 2kg and counting. I ask can I stretch to a yearly checkup...NO!!! I had an aggressive Cancer in 2015, Cancer is sneaky he says...WTF!!!! left feeling upset...but getting back onto things. I know its their job, to be fully upfront and I cant fault him, but disappointed as far as Im concerned Im doing great, moving on and never looking back...refuse to worry about it...just live I say...we dont know the future for this or anything else when you think about it.
Tennille, the biggest of hugs, and strength to face each step as you go, hold strong and nurture you every single step of the way. Melinda xo
