    Today I will be having my first mammogram following treatment. Will find out if this adventure has been a worthwhile effort. I sure hope so.

    I continue with the Herceptin every 3 weeks until July.

    The tamoxifen is a 5 year plan, after about 2 months of taking it I started having serious leg pain, that has now developed into leg, foot and hand pain - my bones hurt as they are being deprived of estrogen. So at least I know that the Tamixofen is actually doing what it is supposed to.

    I just wanted to let everyone know that I met with the oncologist this morning. She told me that my mammogram was CLEAR!! No cancer!!

    Thank you all for your support this past year.
