The treatments are done. I have follow-up appointments for many years to come, but the treatments are over. I'll start taking the Anastrozole in a couple of weeks. I see Dr. Dorn in a month and Dr. Kreisle in July. I'll have mammograms at least twice a year at the St. Luke's Breast Imaging Facility for few years. It depends on what they see.
I'm told you don't really feel yourself again (mentally, emotionally, spiritually) until as much time passes from the end of your treatments as from the time you started your journey. Hard to say in words. What that means for me is - All this started in mid-December which is 6 months ago. Physically I will heal in the next 6 weeks or so, but mentally, emotionally & spiritually I may not feel centered until another 6 months go by -- that would be mid-December this year. I am hoping for the fast track. No surprise there.
I am closing this blog. I am a survivor and plan to live a very long healthy and happy life.
Love and blessings to all - Suzan (and of course my Angel Sehara)
thank you for posting so that we could find out what was going on without bugging you!

:) You should print this blog with all of its comments. When you have a "blue" day, pull it out. You have done so very well and so many people have been there to hold you up. I appreciate that because I am so far away. Great job. Good ending. . . . . Did you get chocolate?
