Re: Ding-Dong! the anthracyclines are dead! SABCS presentation by Dr Slamon shows ant

I think the Dr's gave us what what they felt was right at the time, I was dx in 2005 and had A/c but thankful it gave me so many years of NED and if it leads to issue's in the future so be it it, we can only go with what we know at the time and I'm grateful for the treatments and time I've had.
