Ladies I have so much good news I am full to bursting. First amazing news- complete pathological response 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 If that news wasn’t amazing enough. At the plastic surgeons today I almost jumped out of the chair when he pulled the tape off. Yes, I felt the pain!!! He was shocked said most are numb and don’t feel it. He said bodes well for my recovery!!! When I asked how much numbness would resolve. I am praising God and just buoyant. I have been beyond sad about losing sensation in my breasts so this feels like such a turn around for me. I’m excited and hopeful for the future. I don’t know if this will help anyone on this journey but wanted to share that he said well maybe it was that I did a vertical cuts not horizontal ones.

Did anyone develop gout in their big toe from being on Anastrozole? This is my second year on Anastrozole and all of a sudden I got a flare up. I never had a problem before I started on Anastrozole. And I also have severe back pain which I have to go for epidural shots from pain management does anyone else have severe back pain from being on Anastrozole or other hormone blockers?
