Thirty years ago chemo was common and the current aromatase inhibitors did not exist.

I tried different AI's and manufacturers because I am sensitive to fillers, and ended up with brand name Femara.

My two friends who are around 70 years old didn't do any chemotherapy nor radiation. Both of them decided to choose the surgery only, which is a conventional treatment and diet after.
I have a vast support from my dear family, my darling friends from Europe, here in NY and NJ, and my doctors. Love my breast surgeon from Sloan Kettering and I appreciate my plastic surgeon, and my three alternative doctors. Meeting the oncologist on January 4th.
It's remarkable and powerful to see everyone around me praying for me. Words cannot describe the energy created during those moments. I think the richest people are those who have someone praying for them, who are carrying you on the wings of prayers. They are the friends who enrich your life. I thank God for all those humans who enrich my life.

Saying that is a blessing to have cancer is not something that I would say, but extraordinary things happened during this cancer journey which started in August.

@windyshores . I am guessing that your friend who chose the dietary approach didn't do surgery. There are a few people in my life who didn't do any conventional treatment and died fast. My other two friends who had the surgery over 30 years ago, plus diet ( no chemo or radiation) and exercises are very healthy, never had health problems after and their energy is amazing, like they are in their 20. I personally don't know know anyone who had surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, hormonal treatment with no side effects in the long run and feeling so healthy and good like my friends.

A lot of treatments that we are blindly follow is due to our fear. It takes so much courage to choose a combination of conventional treatment such as surgery and alternative treatments. It's my dream to see a hybrid among conventional and alternative.

Do you like Femara?
