Breast Cancer Recovery Update
Hi Everyone following this blog and my recovery process! I went to the Oncologist doctor (Tetef) on Monday and "everythng looks fantastic!" My blood tests came out great and no new lumps. The pain I feel now and then in my right breast and underarm area are from the scar tissue pulling. The more I use my arm, the more I feel the burn. No problemo. I can deal with that. The Tamoxifen I am taking makes me gain weight and my hair thin, but it is supposed to reduce my risk of getting cancer returning by 25%. I know someone who stopped taking it so they could lose weight and they got cancer back. I'll keep taking the Tamoxifen. Just 2 more years on it. So that makes it 2 and a half years I'm cancer free! Whoohoo! Thanks for following along and caring about my recovery!
