I've been having pretty bad hip and back pain, my oncologist recommended stopping tamoxifen which I did for >5 weeks but pain persists. He told me to restart tamoxifen and see my primary dr. I hate the anxiety as much as the pain

Thank you Colleen. Today I had the energy to pursue one of my few hobbies ~ Taking pictures of Food Trucks at various festivals, etc. I may have walked 1/2 mile in the heat ~ Now I have 40 pictures to download and choose for my albums. I am tired but content and hoping that I can have a clean-ish bill of health after mammo tomorrow.

THANK YOU for asking! All was well, although I needed a second x-ray to clarify something. In the end , all was OK. However, yesterday I over did it in the heat and too much exercise, so today I am really exhausted. Yesterday I really needed to be focused on something other than my mammogram today, so I paid a bit of the price today. BUT~ Now I have 9 months until my next mammogram. I am feeling so relieved.Thank you, Colleen. When do you have time to take care of all of us? SO glad you are there, my dear. ~ Fondly.Molly PS~ Time for an early and air conditioned bed time...Hubby is in Florida after we found out the results and our puppy is more than ready to head to a cool sleep.
