I told you all that I had a normal mammogram last week 11/3/20. I had my appointment with the surgeon yesterday and she said I am now just in "surveillance mode." She also authorized me to start strength training again. I was so relieved. Now I feel like I can finally push myself again.

    There's no describing the relief felt when getting the news that you have a normal memo & you're just in surveillance mode! Congrats!

    I'm almost 8 years out (TNBC) and had a few scares, which turned out to be 'just' calcifications. They followed them every 3 months for 2 years. Had that twice. So that may come up - probably nothing to worry about, but if it happens you may worry anyway. Takes a loooong time to feel pretty safe.

    That's great! The worry never totally ends, but this puts apprehension on the back burner and let's you live your life. Congratulations
