5 Ø After 5 years I have been extremely lucky to be so healthy The only factors that I can say are lingering are: fatigue, joint pain, and chemo-brain! These limit some things, but not to anything constant (except fatigue). I wish that my employment could be fewer hours to alleviate the fatigue. Ø My main issues at this point are diabetes, sexual functioning and depression. Overweight is an issue too, but I am alive so I am grateful.

19 Someone likened cancer to a pink elephant, and the pink elephant initially is right there in front of your face, you know and then as you get better, the pink elephant maybe goes to another room. And then as you get much better, the pink elephant goes down the street, but it s always there and you always know it s there. De Marco et al. Oncology Nursing Forum, 31 (4) 2004.

Post-treatment breast imaging The SCCA recommends a mammogram of the affected breast every 6 Breast self-examination Pelvic examination Laboratory tests Radiology tests driven by: months for up to 3 years from cancer diagnosis, and annual mammography of the opposite breast. Specific Exposure: Perform a breast self-examination every month. This procedure is not a substitute for a mammogram. Inspection and palpation of Chemo (type/dose) irradiated skin and soft tissues every year. Report any unusual symptoms to your medical provider. Radiation (site/dose) Continue to visit a gynecologist regularly. Women taking tamoxifen should report any irregular vaginal bleeding to their doctor. Surgery Your oncologist will determine which blood tests are recommended in your case. This may include a periodic complete blood count (CBC), chemistry panel, liver and kidney tests, and tumor markers. Modified by: Diagnosis Your oncologist will determine which radiology tests are recommended in your case. While a regular chest x-ray is sometimes indicated annually in higher-risk patients, it is uncommon to routinely recommend Age bone scans, CT scans, PET scans or MRIs in asymptomatic patients. Gender
