karen1956,thanks for your reply. I wanted to tell you that possibly what your feeling below your bc breast is from radiation that causes sore ribs. My ribs hurt so bad sometimes along with my bad leg pain from my bad back lol (not really funny it hurts)it wakes me up at night and down goes the ibuprofen. Seems to help, I fall back asleep or I have to lay on my back instead of my side.kimg09

I'm sorry, I just completely read your posts on your wall and see you had implants. Thanks.

Thank you for responding to my question. Did you have reconstruction surgery?

Hi Karen, I am very uncomfortable with the TE. Did you feel that way? Thx

Yes I also feel like if the cancer is going to come back it will. Will taking tamoxifen just delay it? Then again I have three kids that I want to see grow up so do I follow the Drs advice. I go back & forth on it. Maybe I just need more time, just finished radiation & not feeling 100%. Thanks so much for your advice & for understanding!

does the arimidex causes bones ache and upset stomach that is what I am getting and lost of appetite the social security part is for my bad disk , lower back problems that I have since I got hit by a van in 1999

Thanks for the input, Karen! I am almost 60 and have decided after this second time breast cancer that I don't want any more "If I could've would've" moments...so that's why I took the gutsy plunge into the goth world, LOL. But now I realize if I get used to this haircut, maybe the impending baldness won't be so shocking. I love the reaction I'm getting from the Mohawk, though. People my age mostly look disapproving, while young 20's & under seem to react positively every time--which is funny, because most of the time with my regular hair, I seem to be ignored ("just another old lady") by the 20-somethings!
