Well it seems to me that no matter what you do, cancer will come back within 5 to 10 years. I went seven the first time around without treatment so I will pray I can go another seven without treatment this time too. Thanks ladies for your input!
To Dale thanks for the info about getting a yearly body scan, this is something I will be adding to my yearly schedule. I had a whole body scan on March 10th 2025 with no spread, so I will schedule another one for "2026" Hugs to you all !!!

I made it 7.5 years between my first diagnosis which was stage 1 and non-agressive and my second time which is stage 3c and aggressive.

Gosh Rose that is a lot for one person to endure. I really appreciate all the information as I am on my second cancer experience. I am grateful that I still am do well but like you, we all have to be realistic and know it is just a matter of time. I am hopeful the Ivermectin and mebendazole keep it away but who knows. I am willing to give it a shot. I will pray for you as well as all my pink sister's. Who knew we would all be facing such a horrific ordeal!! Hugs to you ❤️

Thank you Rose for that information. Did they treat the new cancers the same with Rad/Chemo and AI? Was the new cancers found in early stage? and did you have any side effects with these scans? Gosh you are a great resource. Thank you

If you are high risk of cancer returning you can get a PET scan every 3 months. That's what I do and since 2019 it's found 4 new cancers, 3 endometrial cancers that returned and 1 breast cancer.
