hello---I am new

[Guest guest]

I am a new member here. You have lots of good info here. Been

reading back posts. I think this group will be what I need.

 

A little about me. It started in 1995 when I was dx with breast

cancer. I had mast. and chemo. Was on tamixifin till it failed. I

have had two re occurances. I am currently still on chemo. I am on

xeloda a pill form. Have been on that for a year. Have now been

stable for a year. I do belong to cancer clubs too.

 

Seems with each chemo it brought problems. I feel I am on too many

drugs. Of course the doctors think I need all!! I have started a

supplement program from a network marketer. (don't know if you allow

names of companys or not) Anyhow I take meds for BP. Diabetes and

arthritis. I have gotten off zoloft. Wow... I feel normal.. maybe a

little grouchy once in a while.... I am also off vioxx. I started

glocosomine. Seems to be working. Now for the diabetes. It is better

now than it has been but on 2 drugs. amaryl and avandia. The latter

is very expensive...

 

Enough for now... Glad to meet you all.. Regards, Joan
