I believe the medication is out of your system within a few days about 10. Also the medication doesn't kill cancer cells directly, but it can stop or slow the growth of some breast cancer cells. So maybe you have none in your body, and maybe it won't come back. Just take one day at a time. That's what I do. My story is exactly as yours except that I only had a lumpectpmy and I still do take the meds, and I am only 44 years old. I live my life to the fullest. Worrying is not worth it.

i want to stop worrying, but don’t know how. i tell myself not to think about it but it dosent work. i woke up at 4. then lie in bed deep breathing. for 2 hours but it doesn’t seem to help. i was on luvox for about 1.5 years with bad stomach pain. now off luvox put me on zoloft, no big stomach ache but worries. i don’t like it but dont know what more i can do. i try that exposure thing where you are supposed to experience the feelings and gradually it wont bother you and you will feel better, but it does not work for me. i tried many things to calm down. in the morning i eat bkfst, then exercise and today prayer group. by 10 i will be finished. then clean up the house, i need to add some activities into my life but i dont know what or how. i was always busy but now with so many friends gone im sort of lost.
