    Riverdancer,

    Welcome to our site.Sorry you have bc, but if a woman does, this is a great place to be, you'll find.Someone is always here, who has been through the same thing you're going through.And your bc sisters will support you.

    That said, I came to ask my usual question -was your bc triple negative, or was it estrogen positive?Because most of us are es+, and f you are, then I bet I know just what is washing you out...Hormone Therapy.

    Are you on Tamoxifen, Arimidex, Femara?

    Because I was never so tired all the time as I was when on Femara.(Yet didnt sleep well).

    Yes, as you said, I felt better when I was in chemo!

    So tell, Riverdancer.

    love from Joan
