5 year survivors, post your screen name here!

congrats Nevo and thank you for posting. I am triple positive so hormone positive as opposite to your moms. I do not know really the impact of that difference. But we both are her2positive. Every time I see a Her2positive long term survivor story, I gives me hope.

Merry Christmas and Brighter 2021 to all of us ladies. May we all stay healthy and well for many many years to come.

Arc66 sorry, just realised this thread was a five year plus recognition of being cancer free! Well done to all of you who have achieved this.

I am triple positive too and all good outcomes are encouraging. I have post surgery necrosis too and does seem going away after 16 months. Your want away? If yes how long it took? Thank

This just popped up on active topics so I thought I'd post. I hit my five years since diagnosis on August 29th. With my lousy pathology (five kinds of cancer spread across seven tumors in both breasts) I wasn't sure I'd make it this far.

Yet here I am. Kinda battered, forever changed, but still here. Hopefully for a very long time.

September 23 2021 was five years for me……..

I haven't been on in years but it's October, breast cancer month and my anniversary. 12 years for me! Life is going well for me.

My wife is 9 years out now. Doing well.

7 years for me...looking forward to many more!

Six years and doing well. Best wishes to all in 2022.

have any of you experienced wbc drop while taking letrozole? In previous blood tests was borderline by last one was 3.9 even lower than the borderline My last chimie was 2.5 years ago. Recently I was diagnosed with osteoporosis due to letrozole so I do not know if it is another side effect or something else. I am worried and my appointment with mo is in 8 days. I appreciate your experience on this.

My five year cancerversary was 8/29/21. Didn't think I'd make it this long. Couple of my surgeons didn't think I would either. Glad to prove them wrong.
