Just wanted to let all new breast cancer patients know that after your treatments there are vaccine trials out there to prevent the cancer from coming back.  Don't want to worry anyone but in 10 to 25 percent of people diagnosed with breast cancer it can come back not neccesarily in the breast but in your body.  If you do have any kind of pain in your body, please tell your doctor right away and make your doctor do tumor marker test on you every 3 to 4 months because my cancer did not show up in those regular cbc blood test until it spread in my liver and bones.   Please ladies be aware of any pains even if it doesn't hurt that much, get it checked out right away.  Love all BC sisters.Kiss

    You posted in the stage Iv forum so you are preaching to the choir.  You may want to post in one of the earlier stage forums to get your message to them.  Hope you are doing well with  your treatment.
