Decisions, Decisions…
If you had to choose between two years of feeling great and five years of feeling like horse-puckey, which would you choose?

It depends. What happens at the end of either option?
Kimberly,
Great answer!
Is this a trick question? I’ll always take feeling good over feeling bad, regardless of time period!
Abel,
Nothing tricky about it, just annoying. They give you medicine that is supposed to “keep the cancer at bay” (who knows how accurate those statistics are anyway?) but in the meantime, you feel like… HORSE-PUCKEY!
hey you! feeling pukey are you? if I tell you it will pass would that help? I agree that statistics are just that – anything is a statistic, because the only One who knows everything is God. But they are used right? In any circumstance, right? It is a scientific method. And yes no one is reduced or should be reduced to a statistic. So I am on the end of the journey and not sure whether to continue or not. When I first began I was positive I would quit after 5 years. Now that the big 5 is here I am not so sure. I no longer have any side effects. They do diminish with time – I have heard women say that repeatedly. What would I rather – take femara for another year or so or face chemo again? Lots of questions with no clear answers.
Ria, I’ve got a big long list of issues… just going to take a 3-month break and decide after that what I will do.
