Aw lass ... what wonderful news ... wishing you both the most wonderful day and life together ️ ‍♀️ ️ x

Evening peeps... Hope everyone is having as good a day as they can ️.

bad:- all the family ( other than me) has come down with this virus that is going around. Lil ones were poorly then after a couple of days their symptoms became suspicious so took the to GP who started them on antibiotics for suspected Scarlet Fever. Hoping everyone feeling better by Christmas .

Good:- So... today I had my last telephone appointment from the hospital to discharge me. They said it's been 5 yrs so I should  now stop the Letrozole. I explained that my first appointment with oncology they said I'd be taking 5 yrs then my 2 nd appointment with them a couple of wks later they said guidance had changed and I'd be on it 10 yrs. Bless the caller was very patient explaining for my grade, size and treatment of my cancer that research indicated there was no benefit to be gained by taking 10 yrs although there was a small benefit to continue for 7yrs. My first dexa scan was normal... 3 yrs later at my next one I had osteopenia. In 6 mths time I get my 2 yr rpt  dexa scan and we have agreed that I will continue till my next scan and if it has deteriorated I will stop but if same I will continue for another 1 1/2 yrs as that will take me to the 7yrs. Wondering what others did and how long they have taken letrozole? Cheers me dears x

Thank you so much so excited ️

Thank you so much so excited! 

Hellllooooooo Everyone!!

What lovely news Beach.....how exciting! You'll be busy busy now with all the planning but will have so much fun.

Love catching up with you all. 
Sooooooo..... I'm coming up to 11 months sober and things still going strong at home. I've gone from a stressful job full of deadlines to 3 mornings a week in the home shopping department in Asda and couldn't be happier. No stress and I forget the job as soon as I walk out of the door....come home and spend time with my family. We've just celebrated our 2 year wedding anniversary which is a miracle in itself....but speaking of miracles.....we have a new addition cooking away. Due in June. I'm a firm believer in things happen for a reason and I believe this happened to finish off what has been a really horrific year and cement our family together again. We're all so excited. So much for chemo making me infertile....if anything it's made me super fertile lol. Didn't think I'd be doing this all over again at 40 but here I am and as much as I despise this saying....I really am living my best life!

still no sign of family but I honestly do not let it bother me anymore. They just aren't important to me. Just because we share DNA doesn't mean I have to like them. I am happier without all their dramas they bring. 
For the first time in my life I'm just excited about the future rather than dreading each day. Living proof that miracles do happen!

I absolutely wish you lovely lot the best of Christmasses. I think we all deserve it...

Huge festive hugs

Dizzle

Morning everyone

Omg Drizzle what exciting news for you as well! You have been on such a rollercoaster but you kept calm and saw it through! How wonderful another little one in the way so exciting.

Wishing everyone a fantastic Christmas and a happy new year!!

Big Christmas hugs to you all xx 

Oh wow Dizzle - so super excited for you and well done you!! So so proud of you.

Beachbabe - congrats! That's wonderful!

Sandra - all these new studies keep going on but read up and know your own body. That's been my experience. I am down today with this virus going around - it's a bad one! But it'll pass and hopefully be on the mend in couple days. Haven't been this bad since 2020!

Its chaos in the hospitals as well and I feel for all the medical staff - flu and covid is on the rise again. Yes - I've had both jabs - didn't make a difference with this lurgey!!! 
But Christmas is on its way and I wish for each and every one of you to stay safe and blessed.xx

Eee lass what a fantastic update and .... huge congratulations.. another little Dizzel on the way.:happy:

You have climbed a mountain to get you to where you are today so... a very enormous well done you. ️ 

I recognise both your difficulties and more importantly your hard earned successes. 
I'm wishing you and yours the very happiest Christmas. 

Bless it is a bad virus.. both lil ones were first then their mum nd dad... both have missed work because of it... they are self employed so a very rare occurrence. I have felt just not right ... bit of a headache nd sore eyes but I must have some antibodies because it's not coming to anything... YAYYYY. I hope you are on the mend soon...keep warm and kick back nd rest up as best you can ️

Re letrozole... think I just got caught on the hop a bit when she said to stop because it was given as kinda throw away statement... like I should have known. I have tolerated it well compared to others. Now I've processed the information I think I will actually stop after Christmas ( some people have reported some withdrawal symptoms nd don't want that at Christmas lol). Guess it felt a kind of safety net to continue particularly when I've dropped to routine screening from annual and discharged for hospital. No pleasing me is there lol. 
I hope you are all better for Christmas lass and wishing you and yours all the best for Christmas and the New Year. ️
