My Doctor told me that the Lupron and the Femara was the way to go with me. I had two Lupron shots and decided to get my ovaries out instead. I figure that is one less thing to have to worrie about. (or should I say two. lol) . I was dx March 04. 2.5 cm lump with 8/16 nodes positive and a spot on my liver. I did 6 cycles of Carboplatin/Taxotere/Herceptin. 33 radiation treatments, and now I've been on Herceptin and Femara since December 04. Every one has to make their choices for whatever reasons are best for them. It's hard to give up your fertility but it's worse to not be around to enjoy what you already have. I am 37 with a husband of 16 years and a 7 year old daughter. We were just thinking of having another baby and the big "C" decided for us. I guess it wasn't in the cards. Take Care and don't rush with these tough choices that we are faced with. Sally
