Good news again
I went to see my oncologist last Tuesday and am very happy to report that my tumour markers are down again. Hurray!
Now, I have to organise another operation! This time to get my ovaries removed...
Hi girls,
Congratulations Amy on your great news...I am sure you are over the moon! I saw a genetic counsellor on Friday in order to get the BRACA gene tests (I have no family history but I'm young-37 and my mum was adopted so we have no history on her side) and started the conversation about ovary removal. Can I ask are you girls having the surgery because you have the BRACA gene or because your breast cancer was hormone positive? I have finished having kids and am on tamoxifen, but my periods have never been more regular than they are on this bloody drug that I thought was meant to be hormone blocking!?
I'd love any info you girls have to offer.
Love sam. Xo
