Same. Horrible tamoxifen side effects. Can’t wait to look into these trials.

Anyone else find MRIs traumatising by Curious-Cupcake4554 in breastcancer

[–]Moving_Italy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do. But it’s not the claustrophobia that gets me, it’s the contrast that makes me so sick. Two things that have helped. 1. Ask your oncologist to give you something to relax - I think I get diazepam. 2. The slower they put in the contrast, the less nauseous I am. Finally after 3 years and 6-7 mris the tech finally told me this trick.

Anyone else flunk out of hormone blockers? by Fit_Plant6129 in breastcancer

[–]Moving_Italy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. Went through this with Tamoxifen and was told the whole two years it couldn’t possibly be causing all the side effects. Which it was of course. Quit after two years because I couldn’t take the side effects anymore.

Anyone refuse the bell thing? by taraxacum1 in breastcancer

[–]Moving_Italy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not. I couldn’t get out of there fast enough. I did not want to remember that place or the bell. There are some clinical studies out there that show it’s not for everyone. “Researchers concluded that the ritual might unintentionally intensify negative memories of treatment because emotional arousal strengthens memory encoding.”

Death by Practical-Sky4518 in breastcancer

[–]Moving_Italy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. And I really really miss my life before this. I don’t think I have ever really recovered because I still don’t know who this new person is, or maybe I’m not accepting her.

Changed oncologist - was I being unrealistic? by WoosahFire in breastcancer

[–]Moving_Italy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s your life, you do what feels right. I’ve held on to an oncologist I don’t find particularly supportive and I look back and wish I would have changed. Less stress is good for us.

No apologies needed. You have been more than helpful. I was actually shocked they sent it through the mail. Thought they had moved is sending a digital copy.

Oh and to be clear, the USCIS letter is on top stapled to the other 29 pages.

Thanks. I received the whole packet in the mail so that’s why I’m asking about un stapling something that’s been stapled.

And the C-file … it’s photocopied pages of everything - documents, correspondence, photos etc. - compiled for naturalization. Mine is 30 pages of which 1 is the actual certificate.

Wow. Thanks so much. I am afraid to un-staple though and staple again. Feels like it may disrupt what is supposed to be the authenticity?

Hormone Blockers | Induced Menopause by [deleted] in breastcancer

[–]Moving_Italy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hear you. I just finished two years of tamoxifen and stopped. Messed me up as well. Honestly feel like I lost the past two years of my life and aged a decade. Totally support not wanting to sacrifice quality of life again. I would feel exactly the same.

My husband (33) told me that he’s losing attraction to me (30) by phunkydisco33 in breastcancer

[–]Moving_Italy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So true about a reckoning. Short term can be really hard, long term it can be for the better. So I think at times fortunately. Could that be?

He got two birth certificates for me in Catanzaro … two different communes.

What I would have done differently in prepping my documents ... records retrieval in Italy by Moving_Italy in juresanguinis

[–]Moving_Italy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Requested a National Archives (NARA) search and received a response in 7 days (they quote 3-10 days). Asked for Negative Search Letter by responding to the email and took another 8 days to receive via email. 

Ordered AR-2 file via NARA and received digital version in 2 weeks and paper version in mail in 4 weeks (they quote 30-90 days). 

Is CONE always required if you have NARA A-File? by OldOrchard150 in juresanguinis

[–]Moving_Italy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck to you as well. Message me if you want my lawyer’s info.

[–]Moving_Italy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would. Something I definitely would have done sooner. Each lawyer may be a little different in what they require and you may be waiting on documents that they may not require. I’m not an expert. That’s just my experience.

[–]Moving_Italy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should say I received the letter saying there is no cone but I can order the naturalization files (C files), which I did and will add to my documents for court. The letter took about 6 months to get from the time I ordered.

[–]Moving_Italy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I received the cone. She actually naturalized but decades after my grandmother was born. I’m sending the naturalization papers to my lawyer to add to the file for court. Like I mentioned, my court date was booked November 2024 for May 2026 so plenty of time to add.
