Who else can't sleep?
Sitting here at 4:15am (CST) after trying since 2:30am to go back to sleep and finally giving up, yet again... Wondering who else is out there this morning, and most mornings at this time?
I think what set me off last night was an email from my oncologist. I'd asked her what the results of the three oestrogen tests she ordered for last Saturday's blood test. She said they indicated I was "post menopausal at the moment". Even though I haven't had a period since November, and have massive hot flushes, it was still a confronting shock to see it in black and white.
And then:
And then:
"I think its likely you will remain post menopausal (given your age) but if we decide to start anastrozole then we'll have to keep a close eye on the FSH and oestrodiol for the next 12 months or so."
