Any testimonies where cancer didn't return?

Just read your post and thought I might write you. I have had breast cancer at 36, and a Fibrosarcoma in 1988 in my right thigh, and a squamouse Cell carcinoma on the skin above my collar bone. The squamouse was about 3 years ago. I did have a radical mastectomy and a simple mastectomy 2 years later (not cancerous)

The main reason I decided to write you is in regard to your osteoporsis. I started medication when I wa 59 and I think I have been on every type of new Med for this problem including the nasal spray which caused me to have sinus problems. I have not had any injectables. I have had knee, hip, and shoulder replacements with no complications, but recently I did have a compression fracture of the 6th thoracic spine. Recently, I was diagnosed with MCus and the Hematologist suggested that I stop the osteoporosis med. I am now 92

My husband was on Zometa for bone cancer, and it was fantastic. He did not have another bone cancer following the infusions of Zometa. Hope you have the same results

Thank you for your reply. That is so good to hear of your husbands good results on Zometa! I am praying that it will be of great help to me too! You are a great example for all of us on the journey! In your 90s and doing your very best to stay well and enjoy life. I hope the Mcus is treatable and you are doing well. I am getting PT for my compression fractures, T6 and T7 and it is helping! Hope your Doc has set you up for PT.
It's so good to hear from a woman on our journey who has reached her 90s! That's my goal!
