Hi Celeste,have stumbled across your blog.I'm still new to this online site and not sure what I'm doing.I had my first breast cancer 7 years ago- I had a lumpectomy,full lymph node clearance,followed by radiation. Anyway,what I want to say is that it took me about 2yrs to get my confidence back that I was ok and going to live. Unfortunately it reared it's ugly head again,7years later.This time I had the mastectomy and some chemo and am now on Tamoxifen.I tried it 7years back and I couldn't stand it so didn't take it.Now that I'm menopausal it seems to be kinda o.k.I'm sticking with genox brand as it's much better than the other brands.I get the odd hot flush,trouble sleeping,bit depressed,terrible concentration and memory but otherwise it's a hoot!
