Tommi - I really do like my new oncologist. I DO NOT like the new primary, so dr shopping again for a primary.

Dapper - I am prone to doing the same thing, thinking 'oh hell, it will go away'. I hope your scan comes back clean. Please, let us know how you are doing. I know I stress myself out WAY more than I need to, also. It doesn't change the outcome, so its needless. Right???
The genetics test is for the BRCA gene. Since the cancer was negative for hormone receptors, I have a higher chance of recurrence and it coming back in other areas of my body. If I test positive for the gene it can help with any future treatment plans and my daughter, niece and sisters will have to be screened more often and earlier.
Head in the sand means to me; ignoring changes in my body/health, continuing to not take care of ME.
To keep myself healthy: I eat a very low-fat, high fiber diet. I do not eat soy or processed sugar. I moved closer to family, ended an unhealthy/toxic relationship (I even let hym back in after radiation, after hy left me the day after my 2nd chemo WTF) and am working from home and less hours to lower my stress level.

KC - thank you and so sorry about all the losses you have had. HUGS

Lucian - finding it early is such a blessing I pray Aryon is back out of the hospital soon (of not already) and the infection is gone.

julie - I truly feel it is harder to be the caretaker. You are amazing. It is such a loving, unselfish thing to do for a person. I have never been closer to my best friend and am in awe of what she gave to me. I am grateful every minute to have her in my life.

clay - hope you get an appt for a scope soon and don't have too wait long.

Jeano - I am working hard at not worrying about what hasn't happened. It is hard! It did motivate me to have my affairs in order. I have a safe with wills, user names and passwords, account information. HUGS and LOVE to you, too.

Deb, reading the good news has really made my day--doing the happy dance right now. Jeano
