Health Update

I went in for my 3 month check with the oncologist a couple of weeks ago. He told me everything looked good, and that after my next 3 month app't, I could start coming every 6 months. He also tested my estrogen level, and found that I am now post-menopausal. That means I can change to a different cancer treatment medication (Arimidex), instead of the Tamoxifen that I'm taking now. Arimidex is better at reducing my risk of cancer spreading to other parts of the body and also the risk of a new cancer developing in the other breast. The list of side effects is pretty long, but I hope that I don't have any problems. I will wait to switch medications until my next appointment.
