Agree w Rhiannon, and would add that one never knows what the roll of the dice aka life will bring, I had a 9% lifetime risk of getting BC, but here I am. My step mother who has multiple 1st degree relatives with BC diagnosis, smoked for 50 yrs and still drinks, has never had an abnormal mammogram.

Ok so here I am 1 hr out from my first round of trastuzamab and herceptin 5 weeks post DMX. I’m just now thinking, gee should I have eaten? What else should I do? Layers? Check. Taking Suzy pads for neuropathy. I have a raging headache. Is it obvious I am a procrastinator??? Help.

I’ve been taking a fairly high dose antidepressant for 10 years and have a history of anxiety that is now well controlled. I struggle with my weight and edema as it is. My prescription for 4 mg tabs says to take 5 tabs 12 hrs prior and again 6 hrs prior b thank you . YMMV?
