Re: Definitive answer? When does the clock start ticking
Hej CoolBreeze,
I know this is a little off topic but ...love your writeup about this in your blog (and thoroughly enjoy that one too!). Been meaning to tell you, have you ever considered just putting your blog together into a book and publishing it? My husband bought me Dana Favre's book back when I was diagnosed but your collection of thoughts and suggestions in your blog would have been more helpful for a newly diagnosed.
As far as statistic...I have no evidence but would think the clock starts from the point when you were declared and treatment ended. (yup, unfortunately I think that would mean after Herceptin).
