Smile All clear Mammo and ten years out!

I'm delighted to finally be joining the ten year club and really never thought I'd be here still all these years later, so grateful for all the wonderful care I received.

Just a quick question, my Onc said she'd now discharge me as I was ten years out, when she realized I had one last appointment with the clinical trials nurse she decided to delay it until next year. I have very mixed feelings about this and just wondered if and when your Onc discharged you??

Slainte, think I've earned a drink!

Tricia xx

Re: All clear Mammo and ten years out!

Congratulations Tricia! I hope to join this group in the future also.

My understanding is that I would continue to see my oncologist yearly after I hit 5 years out from diagnosis. However, I didn't think that I would ever be "discharged".

This is wonderful news, thanks for posting this!

Aug 18, 2013: MRI report says Left breast is perfectly healthy "consistent with previous studies".

Sept 2013: I insist on a bilateral mastectomy anyway. Too nervewracking to let left breast remain with higher risk after 3 cancers in right, nipple in right is already gone anyhow.

Sept 18, 2013: Bilateral mastectomy, 11 right nodes removed, ALL negative BUT -- ER+/PRO+/HER2+ tumor, 1.0 cm, Grade 2 found in a piece of "grossly unremarkable" breast tissue from prophylactic mastectomy of left breast, no nodes removed.

Oct 25, 2013: 13 left side nodes removed, ALL negative, Stage 1 across the board, NO RADS needed, YAAAAY! Port also installed.

Nov 25, 2013 Begin 6 rounds TCH.

March 10, 2014 Just finished 6th and LAST Chemo today, YAAAAAY!

March 24, 2014 Echocardiogram to make sure I'm still good for Herceptin every 3 weeks.

March 31, 2014 Echo results NORMAL, first Herceptin all by itself. Now if only my eyes would stop streaming from the Taxotere ... :)

April 21, 2014 Started Arimidex and therapy for "mild" lymphedema in left hand and arm

May 2014 Therapy completed, I have sleeves and gloves for both arms, a Flexi touch lymph pump to hook up to for an hour every day, and I've become an arm bandaging expert. :)

June 2014 Begin Fosamax to prevent osteoporosis; bone scan revealed osteopenia

Nov 17, 2014 FINAL Herceptin!

Dec 4, 2014 My right thigh muscle has been extra achy for days ... I discover a blister rash cluster on the side of my right thigh while taking a shower. Port appointment cancelled until Dec 17, my doc is working me in tomorrow afternoon to see me and the rash. My muscle at least feels less achy.

Dec 5, 2014 Yep, I have shingles. Boo! I start acyclovir and also have a prescription for a painkiller just in case for over the weekend.

Dec 17, 2014 Port is OUT!

January 2016 Shingles again and this time it started where my left breast (where the hidden HER2+++ tumor was!) used to be. My onc nurse got me a same day appointment to see my doc when I called and told her I had a rash on the site. The antiviral meds are working once again, though, so that is good news. :)

Re: All clear Mammo and ten years out!

Wonderful news Tricia. I am almost 11 years out and my onc still sees me every 6 months. Maybe when the Arimidex is over - my 10 years is up in September, he might go to every year. I will let you know but I know the practice I go to keeps seeing everyone.

Re: All clear Mammo and ten years out!

Thank you everyone, my Onc said everyone is discharged back to their family Dr at ten years and I'd had a lot of treatment and should go forward and put it all behind me, she agreed its a scary thought at first but I'd soon get used to it and if I needed her I could call. I have a friend who's a thirty year survivor in California and she was discharged at ten years too so was just wondering if this was the norm.

Becky, my Onc told me stop the Arimidex last summer as I'd done all I could as far as she was concerned, to my surprise I still have the achy joints etc so she suggested today I begin taking Glucosamine/Chondroitin again, I think its just old age creeping up!

Re: All clear Mammo and ten years out!

My cancer center has a Women's Wellness Clinic that patients get moved over to for less frequent monitoring.

I am not there yet, but maybe my med onc will think I should be seen less often one of these years!

Congrats Tricia!!! I stopped going to my cancer centre six years after I finished herceptin. My onc was ready to discharge me after five years but I wasn't ready for that so we waited another year. Now I have yearly check ups with my family doctor . .

Re: All clear Mammo and ten years out!

Thanks Suzan and Pink, you've both reassured me, I also spoke to a friend who's a thirty year survivor and she said it's one of the milestones and feels like a rejection at first but in time simply becomes the norm.

Re: All clear Mammo and ten years out!

Big congrats Tricia! The 10 year club is huge, I look forward to joining it next year, October 2016.

My original oncologist discharged me after I had finished my 5 year regime of Tamoxifen (2.5 years) and then Femara (2.5 years). I was given the choice of being followed by my GP or by an oncologist at a new After Cancer Care Clinic at Women's College Hospital in downtown Toronto, about 2 blocks away from the 2 hospitals where I had my mastectomy and then chemo/Herceptin. I chose to go to the clinic, it's been about 3 years - I get my mammos done there too.

all the best

Re: All clear Mammo and ten years out!

Tricia,

I am so sorry I missed your post, as I have not been on this site for a while.

Ten years . I am so pleased for you. You were so inspirational to me nine years ago when I was diagnosed and have been so lovely every year when my anniversary comes up. Hope to join the 10 year club next year.

Janie
