Guest guest Posted April 22, 2006 Report Share Posted April 22, 2006 Hi Everyone, I had a masectomy Feb '06 and started chemo in March '06. I had two treatments of DD AC -- whoa, that was enough! I have chosen to stop the chemo. the onc wants me to go on Tamoxifen as the cancer they took out was ER +. I am interested in alternatives to the Tam. I am 53 years old. Has anyone gone the alternative route after mastectomy? I feel in my gut the chemo was enough. I do have a family history, my mom and three maternal aunts breast cancer. I was the first to have chemo. They were all postmenopausal. I have not had my period since Nov 05, so probably will be menopausal this coming Nov. I am interested in going forward with no side effects and living my life with JOY and disconnecting from all these crazy medical experiments. They are dealing with science, trying to replicate results, when we all know not everyone is the same. My family is not happy with me, as they want me to follow the dr's suggestions. Help! Does anyone have any info? I know all about Dr. Day, etc. Just looking for some average people who have not written a book and making money off of it that have gone through taking charge of their health. Anyone out there? Blessings to you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
