I was laying awake last night (couldnt sleep after chemo) thinking if there has been any research done on Early Breast Cancer Patients on survival and how many years after treatment (Mastectomy, Axilla Clearance, Chemo x 6, Herceptin, Tamoxifen) before contracting/finding secondary cancers.

There seems to be alot at 7 years after treatment and 2 years after stopping the hormone therapy.

Just wondering if anyone knows the stats if any. I know there are so many variants with the type of cancers and treatments.

Almost Christmas

Hello to all you beautiful ladies and Gents. I'm preparing for my little surgery tomorrow to install a portacath in raedy for my Chemo. Then on Saturday our family has decided to have our Christmas Day a Week earlier.  Mainly because I will be starting my Chemo on Chrissy Eve..HO HO HO!!!. So we are all getting together from all over the state to celebrate.

Hello and Welcome to all the newbies to the website. Hope you enjoy it as much has I do as its important to talk to others going through or been through the same thing. They all give you strength to carry on.
