Hi I was dx in 2003 treatment throughjuly 2004. no herceptin becacuse it was still in trials . I was 45 at dx 1.3 cm idc no node her2+++ erpr+ I had a lumpectomy and sentinal node a/c and rads. I have been on tamoxifen for 4 yrs now, I tried toget herceptin but was told that it was too far out from treatment and wouldn't help. I have been lucky so far but this summer I was dx with melanoma stage 1b and now I'm wondering what to do about having a period after 18 months of thinking I was menapausal my last bloodwork had the estrodril at 26 I had an ultrasound and biopsy and was told that it was endometrial hyperplasia.Does anyone know abut this ? Does this mean that I need to have a hysterectomy? Is this caused by tamoxifen?I was at my primary Dr. ofice the other day having my thyroid checked and the nurse practioner said to me that "I must feel like my body is betraying me" NICE .I may feel that way but I don't need to hear it . oh well thanks for reading this Leslie
