**TAMOXIFEN** 26 !

[MaryAnnSingleton]

Here we go !

Yay for Topsy's tap. Things like kitchen taps a real nuisance when not working. Sorry Worried still waiting. Not sure bout answer to qu. Leave for others as in a rush now.

Worried, ring them !! Seriously it's ridiculous you having all this worry. You're not being a PITA at all.

Waving to Baskets. Your eye problems sound painful. Hope new glasses help. Do you think they will? Have a nice time in Perth.[wmile]

Yay indeed for Topsy's tap.

Piff... pressed post before had said to Gig, blood transfusion sounds heavy duty. I didn't know you have to do that too. Is that every time, or just because your levels are so low?

Just phoned hospital as I'm a PITA and I know it

They had sent my results but they haven't got to me yet. The lump is a fibroadenoma, so completely benign, and they don't need to do anything further. Tank feckety feck for that, I'm so relieved I had a little cry

They also say because of my family history (which is quite bad) they would like to refer me to their family history assessment clinic to help them decide if I should be put on a more regular programme of mammograms than the regular one (I'm ten years off the age for 'officially' having my first).

Am crossing everything and hoping the best news for all others waiting today x x x

YEAY..!! Worried, that's brilliant.

Thank you Smee

Oh feck it just outed myself now I've namechanged back

for worried (and topsy tap).

smee blood just pre cautionary as was getting low so want to preempt me going too anaemic. I hope not every time as glad am not only squeamish one mas.

Baby doc (who looks a bit Robert pattinson for you who like such things) also told me that evidence transfusion can help chemo effectiveness as good blood levels get the hard stuff working.

Enjoy Perth basket

autumn thinking of you .

We will keep your secret

I've done this before - I once tried to namechange to ask if anyone knew what a spot in an embarrassing place might be, but didn't manage to do it properly

arf @ worried and hooray !!!!!

Waves to baskets
Thank goodness the tap is in topsy - saw it on fb and it looks mighty fine
gig I had a horrid experience as a 6 year old with a blood transfusion- I was told by nurse to keep really still so it wouldn't fall down, which it did,covering my bed in blood which nearly gave my dad a heart attack when he came to visit.

That's my nightmare - I was watching nurse put it in and was letting blood flow down line before put it in.. Boak. Also had history of fainting when giving blood etc.

Feeling bit brighter now which maybe cos have loaded me with pre meds for chemo so will be all twitchy with topsy. In fact if we got our camo on and some face paint (ESP with my new hair), we could be extras in one of those films about vietnam where they imply all the soldiers were wired up on drugs.

@ your Vietnam film extras !
I faint at blood tests and minor surgery- even blood related words set me off,as Tamoxifen old hands will testify.

Gig, makes sense to not risk anaemia, though I think I'd find it yuk too. Is it through yet? You need to get your commando gear on. Something tells me Topsy will be into it.

Bloody hell so much chatting

Can I just restrict myself to saying wahey!!!!! for Worried. And don't worry about outing yourself, so many of us on here have chemo brain so much we can't remember our own names, let alone anyone else's

Love to all.

Ooh - and dd has just received a letter from the real, actual Queen! It's got the crest on and everything!

She will be so excited when I show her DD wrote to her to say have a happy Jubilee (or summat)

Brilliant news worried !!!

< *Topsy shows best war face>

Aw thanks for all the thankses

Maybe I should change my name to worriedflump - I'll probably find a new worry by tomorrow

Some wow - a real letter from the Queen! I am seriously impressed!

Worriedflump - I hope you are going to be celebrating with

Ooh yes tons

Coincidentally I have the day off tomorrow so I don't even have to worry about a hangover

Am off to school now

Hope you all have a good day, what's left of it

Biospy was BENIGN! They said that they can't be 100% sure til they remove it but it looks good! I feel like I have been given my life back

WooHoo worried

gig how are you feeling today?

I am so pleased autumn. Feeling a lot better for that news.

Am doing ok- nausea passing but tired.

Fan-bloody-tastic news, Autumn, well done you.

Don't feel you have to leave, Sparkles is an interloper so you wouldn't be the first

Gig - no nausea is a BIG step forward

Yes please don't go autumn - you are one of us and I feel like know you now so want to hear how you are doing

Can I hang around too?
