survival rates

does anyone know where that website is where you plug in your BC stuff and it spits out your survival odds. by MO said I had 20-30 chance of reoccurance, but I'm not really sure if he actually plugged in my stuff. think he was sorta trying to calm my fears. I heard 40% once.

It's called cancer math. Just google it. One thing is that you have to use the search that adds treatments. Otherwise, I think, you get odds if nothing is done. Not good! Also, I noticed that it does not give an option for rads. Or I can't find it. I would take all predictions with a grain of salt. Nobody's cancer, body, lifestyle etc. is exactly the same as others'. Imho, accurately predicting reoccurrance and/or survival is still pretty much a crap shoot.

Best wishes!

I wouldn't even bother with those sites.  They are often based on outdated information so your odds are probably better than whatever is predicted.

Are you receving Zometa?

Me again Fran,

I agree w/the other ladies, stay off of that site!  Too much outdated info, and again, they are averages, not individuals.
