2010 status for early bc patients
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20602189
I find it remarkably unpleasant that there is not even an acknowledgement that this ONLY deals with these rotten effects on those who have early bc.... as if it is of little or no consequence that all of those who have other than early bc are also stuck with dealing with these consequences -- and with no way to address them. This is not a just a problem for early stage bc patients.
