I have done a lot of research and reading over the last two years since my original dx. I also adopted a more healthy lifestyle between original dx and mets. I did it to gain control again, not because of the latest headlines about what "might" prevent BC. In my research, I found that often headlines are created that are very misleading. Exercise and proper weight are important as prevention for a certain segment of the bc population-namely post-menapausel (sorry it's spelled wrong-chemo brain) women who are er+.
The bottom line is: exercise because it make you feel good about you. Don't put added stress on yourself if you can't do it. Sometimes you just won't feel good enough. You aren't killing yourself if you don't.
