Hi ladies, just wanted to share some good neews.  So my mom had her every 3 month visit with her onc today, and all seems well.  She was diagnosed with BC in Jan, 2011, went on hormone therapy in Mar, 2011, and had a unilateral MX in April 2011.  Despite being Stage IIIb and having a high Onco score, and despite being recommended to have chemo and rads after surgery, she decided to not do the chemo and rads, and only to do HT.  In Feb 2012, she went off the HT due to severe SEs with all three types that she'd been prescribed.  I thought then that she was making a huge mistake, but hey, it is her decision.

Fast forward 6 months and she's doing well -- still NED!!  I am so thankful for this as it has been a huge concern that she's flying by the seat of her pants, but so far, so good. Just wanted to share the news, and to again thank you all for this forum.  It is a wonderfun venue to share what everyone is going through.
