Is anyone in the comet study? I am, just for a week. I was selected for the Active Surveillance group.

If so what arm are you in?

How long have you participated?

Do you take hormone therapy?

Have you had any mammos yet since joining and if so how did they go?

Do you regret your decision of joining the study?

Sorry for all the questions. I am wondering if it was not a good choice for me. I have grade two dcis. Quite large c area. Approx 6 x 6 x 4.

Diagnosed 11/30/18

Thanks!

    Me! Me! Me! I was hoping to find someone in the COMET study! I am also doing Active Surveillance. I was just officially enrolled 2 weeks ago (diagnosed 12/7/18). I am not taking hormones. My next mammogram will be in April. I have tried to look up what size mine is but no where can I find it. My initial mammo said that there is a "small cluster of microcalcifications" but doesn't specify a size and all the doctors that I've seen just remark that it is a small area. So far...no regrets. I did a lot of research before I decided to find an investigator in the clinical trial and I am prepared to do surgery if there are any changes...but the whole point is that there may NOT be any changes...so, we'll see.
