Hi everyone

I rarely post on breast cancer sites anymore for a number of reasons, but wanted you all to know that I had the five year 'all clear' yesterday. This in spite of receiving neither chemo nor herceptin for my weakly positive HER2+ tiny tumour.

At the time, I was extremely dubious about my 'light touch' treatment (surgery, rads and tamoxifen), but now realise that the medics were right.

This post is really to give hope to the newly-diagnosed; five years ago, I did not think I would be writing such a post, let alone re-entering my profession.

My best wishes to you all.
