	Hello! I am so sorry you are going through this. I was diagnosed at the beginning of the school year and I am a teacher. I felt the stage you are in was BY FAR my most stressful part of the process...
	RE: Treatment tips and tricks By Kpitzer02, 1 week ago Forum Effects on your body
	Hello! I had taxol as well and used ice mittens and ice socks. In theory, it made sense to me for slowing the circulation so that chemo to those area. I figured it would not hurt. You are welcome ...

	Ok I like the pillow idea so you can isolate the fingertips! Thank you!

	@janedoe7 Hi! Thank you for responding! Like you mentioned, I do find it better when I move more. Just have to remember to take more breaks from working and move. My oncologist mentioned he could try ...
	RE: Side effects of Letrozole By janedoe7, 1 week ago Forum Forum
	Hi Debi! I’m on a different estrogen blocker and definitely can be stiff if I am not getting enough movement. Sometimes when I stand up from a chair or get out of the car after a long ride I feel like...

	Hi Jen! I was on Taxol during my first course of treatment, and I also had to use cold treatments for the second chemo round after radiation. I definitely think the cold treatment helps to prevent neu...

	Hello breasty baddies! Jen in OP here. I was originally diagnosed with IDC stage 2, but three out of four lymph nodes were positive after DMX with reconstruction 5/14 so I guess that makes it stage 3?...

	I am two years in remission from breast cancer, right side with mastectomy and breast reconstruction. No chemo or radiation was necessary. Am taking Letrozole (estrogen blocker) and will probably be o...

	Different from yours. Post-menopausal, Stage 1, no symptoms, found at my annual mammogram. Treated with lumpectomy, radiation and hormone blockers. I had a few frustrating and painful side effects fro...

	@janedoe7 yeah that's a good point. I just know I can feel them. What is your breast cancer story btw if you don't mind sharing?
	RE: Hurry up and wait By janedoe7, 2 weeks ago Forum Forum
	Yes, but I just googled it, and DCIS can be much larger than I thought. It’s hard to tell what “this process” is referring to above, because multiple areas are mentioned. Is it possible “this process”...

	@lms7663 Hi! I was just diagnosed recently; awaiting double mastectomy at KU. How are things going for you? I'm in nursing school, and am now going to have to pause that.

	@janedoe7 thank you so much for your thoughtful reply; and just validating my feelings! Yeah, I don't get it about the lumps and DCIS either. My doctor did mention chemo, and it will be warranted if t...
