I had a clear mammogram today

[Sweetpea]

After having a lumpectomy for breast cancer in 2000. I blamed that on Bush too...stress..:-)

But tonight I am going to CELEBRATE!!!!!:toast:


I am ecstatic because I did an alternative treatment with the lumpectomy. I was advised to do chemo and radiation but I chose escharotics. I have been clear for a year and a half.....no tamoxifen for me.....Yippee!!!!!!

10. wonderful news, sweetpea!!!

:toast: hope mine is as good. two benign fibroid cysts removed thus far, and it seems i have another now. i'm going on a totally raw food diet...a friend's lump completely disappeared after doing this diet for only a month. i will still have the biopsy anyway, but it can't hurt to do the cleanse.
congratulations again on your great news :bounce:

11. Yes, Enzymes are very important I have learned

amylase, bromelain, pancreatin.

[noiretextatique]

14. thanks...

that's good to know.

[Sweetpea]

15. Those who do that kind of work have seen tumors shrink with

the use of enyzmes.

20. Let me know if this works, noiretblue. Like you, I've had two removed

both benign. I am diabetic, so any diet has to be under strict supervision, but I would love not to endure that worry again.

Thanks.

[Andy_Stephenson]

19. Thank the

Goddess!

[blondeatlast]

21. Hooray--I'm celebrating for you!

I've had two lumpectomies, both benign, but everytime my mammos turn out well I feel like a great weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

[Sweetpea]

23. Thanks so much!!!! Especially after having a surgery

you always feel little nerve endings or something annoying in that area which makes your mind want to believe the worst. Test results at least can appease the paranoia.

[MaineDem]

22. I'm thrilled for you

I know how wonderful you feel!

Congrats!!!

25. I'm very happy for you.
