Managing Ongoing Meds - Ask the Expert

Breastcancer.org is having an Ask the Expert online conference on Managing Ongoing Medications. Here is the information for anyone interested:

A longer-term medication routine can have its challenges. What if you miss your Herceptin appointment? What if you're having hormonal therapy side effects such as nausea, joint pain, or hot flashes? Are you supposed to just tough it out? How risky is skipping a dose or just stopping altogether? Or what if you just plain forget?


Join us tomorrow night, Wednesday, August 15th, between 9:30 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)* (2:30 a.m. to 4:00 a.m. GMT August 16th) for this month's Ask-the-Expert Online Conference: Managing Ongoing Medications.


If you'd like to ask a question for our MANAGING ONGOING MEDICATIONS conference but will not be able to join the conference tomorrow, you can submit your question now at:

http://chat.liveworld.com<WBR>/events/ibreast/


We'll answer as many questions as we can during the conference. A conference transcript will be posted at breastcancer.org by August 24th, 2007.

To join the conference, go to www.breastcancer.org any time between 9:30 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. EDT* tomorrow and click on the "Join Conference" button. No special software is required.
