Oh yes, it has happened. I went into chemopause after my first round of AC. That was June of 05. Well last month, it came back with a vengance! What a period. Wow. They did hormone tests 2 weeks ago, and yup, I'm out of chemopause. Thank God that they kept me on Tamoxifen instead of an AI. He wanted to keep me on it for another year to be on the safe side because he said on rare occasions, you come out. I was one of the lucky ones. HA. I am 44 years old so it is a surprise.
In a weird way, I kind of feel good about it. I actually have a working female part! I am missing a knee cap - too much skiing, missing a thyroid - cancer, missing both boobs, cancer. I kind of like having something that keeps working.
p.s. congrats on the new upcoming grandbabies!! - kim
