    Yeah, this story ruined my day on Monday when my onc told me about it.  Not only did I have short cycle right after AC, my cycles started right back up less than 2 months after my last chemo.   Needless to say, we started the Lupron shots and Tamoxifen Monday.  I'm leaning towards an ooph even stronger now.  You know what was funny though?  It  "occurs in 40-90%" of pre-men bc patients.  That's a heck of a range!
