Hi everyone. I am back :) Sorry I have been away for a while. I guess I just decided to take a break from this darn cancer thing. I am doing really well. My hair is coming back....yea!! I am feeling more and more like normal again. It has been almost two months since my last radiation. Wow...hard to believe. Time goes by so darn fast. This week I have made appointments with all of my doctors for my 3 months check ups. Oh, I don't think I have shared with you all that I am now on my maintenance medication ( i guess that's what you would call it). We thought all along that I would be put on tamoxifen....surprise, my blood work showed that I am in menopause so that meant I would be on a different medication. I was a little shocked and I knew nothing about the other medication so it freaked me out a bit. My doctor said this is all good stuff though. He said this medication is actually better, so I guess all good. I take arimidex daily now for five years. I guess since I am so young that my numbers could change as time goes by and my body continues to get back to normal. Anyway, so now I will see my reconstruction doctor this next week. Excited about that. Kimmy's rack will be back...haha I should find out when we will schedule for that surgery. It's kind of a long process. Surgery, heal, expansion and then implants. Should all be done by next summer. I will see my breast surgeon the first of October. I will have my mammogram the same day I see my surgeon. Nice! Will be nice to find out those results immediately. I also will see my oncologist this same week.
So glad to here things are going so well!! We really need to do lunch again after the 3 day
