I'll wait!
I'm scheduled to see my surgeon next week (6 months since surgery) but when I showed the post card to my onc. he said wait til after I finish chemo., which will be a while! But I did just have a bone scan, muga, and CT scan. I really like my surgeon, but don't want any more input than is necessary right now!
I feel great on just Navelbein (sp) and Herceptin and just want a month or so to think about feeling good! So glad this question was asked!!!!!
