@nope, so glad you are on the right track. I hope relief is on the way! Please keep us posted. @mwilson502 I agree, Dr. Beahm is great!!! Did you als...

You bet. Don’t forget to moisturize! You’ve got this!

I know sometimes I just want to be told what to do, and I wish so badly I could give you that. Unfortunately I'm not a doctor and I haven't seen your ...

Hi! I'm sure you're antsy to get started. It's hard to have things hanging over your head. I have a few questions for you: 1. You said your radiolog...

@mwilson502 Wow, congratulations on your progress! I just wanted to add to this--I do not have lymphedema but we are pretty mindful because I have som...

@keepchanging, good luck with your double mastectomy surgery! I was curious what tipped the scale for you from monitoring to surgery. Were you waiting...

I had OT for cording and radiation fibrosis too. I believe I have said it somewhere else on here, but I tried to DIY my cording using YouTube videos w...

@iamasurvivor No, I actually didn’t have tattoos. They made a mold of my torso for me to lie in each time. (That’s just how they did alignment there.)

@yoliv5590 Did you know that you can get your radiation alignment tattoos removed for free? Rajeunir Medical Spas will take care of that for you at a...

I’m sorry you are experiencing this. I wonder if it is an effect of radiation, since we know that there can be late effects. But I’m also wondering if...

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 o...

Different from yours. Post-menopausal, Stage 1, no symptoms, found at my annual mammogram. Treated with lumpectomy, radiation and hormone blockers. I ...

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 ...

You poor thing! First of all, I'm sorry you had to wait 3 weeks for a mammogram after finding a lump. That is agony! Second, I'm confused about what t...
