Hi, I know if you have done chemo, you were put into menopause. I do some of these, and they do help. Just remember that we all are different. So what works for you may not work for somebody else. I wish you luck.

To Change Dr.'s

If you're not happy with your doctor, whether you are concerned about a change in your breasts or undergoing treatment for breast cancer, remember that you are always entitled to a second opinion. Have you gotten a second opinion about your breast health?

You have every right in the world to fire them. I did just that one day. I went into the office that day, and didn't like what had happen. And I fired her! It was my life she was playing with! Just remember... you are paying them, they work for you.

What Komen is putting the pink ribbon now.

A lot of breast cancer survivors are not happy with this one! And I can see why, when I was doing chemo and still today a lot of smells makes my tummy upset. I hear that from so many people, not just breast cancer, all cancer people. This isn't a good thing for them. I see this as a big $$$ for them, because of the pink ribbon! Is Nancy, lusting what this was all about in the being? What do you think?

Do you know, who carry's the Breast Cancer gene

I was wondering, how many of you know who carry's the Breast Cancer gene? Well.. I thought I knew, until I got it. NO it's not your mother, it's your father. Your Dr.'s always ask if your mother side has a history of it and never asked about my father side. When will they start to ask that question? I was reading a story the other day about a 31yr lady who passed away, after her 4yr long battle with Breast Cancer. It took a full year of her fighting with her Dr. and Insurance company to get a mammogram. Why?? Because she was to young and had no family history. When are Dr.'s going to start backing up us? Not everybody will have a family history, so how can they say your not at risk? These are question's we need to start asking. Because we only have one life!!
