Seven seas glucasamine plus omega 3 tablets helped me. Quite pricey around £5 a box in Tesco, Asda etc but I found it in home bargains at £3. I took it for the first few months, now I don't bother.
Went for appointment with no eyebrows (onc) today. Wasn't important enough to see him, only saw the lovely nurse. Anyway results from my oophie, everything was all clear - there was nothing suspicious in my ovaries. Not that I thought there was, but it is good to know anyway. The best news for me was that I can stay with that hospital team so although I have to change GP, I don't have to change the hospital. All done and dusted, back in a year's time!
Hi All, I am tired after my journey to work today. I got stuck in traffic both ways so ended up doing 6.5+ hours driving! It was nice to see everyone though and I made sure my makeup was done properly to make my hair look better!
, Jane, good luck for tomorrow. LPs and LNPs will no doubt be loaned to you by Sal and we are all going to be thinking about you. I am sure it will be good news and we will be waiting to hear!
wombat.23, what fantastic news About the oophie and staying with your hospital!!!
Anyone else with appointments, good luck! It has been a hard few days for some of you and I am so sorry that I can’t do anything to help. I wish there was a magic wand, but if there was, we all would have waved it long ago and not met each other. Much as I hate this, I am glad that we all found each other. Xxx

None of us wanted to be in this group, but we are glad we're not alone.
Diagnosis 2/8/17 IDC Her2+, 22mm, with spread to several lymph nodes. TCHP chemo started 23/8/17, Mx with immediate, temp recon 24/1/18, rads 20/3 to 10/4/18, Herceptin by IV until Nov 18. RR Mx Jan 23. Still waiting for reconstruction, but opting for simple implants, as opposed to Diep, due to long waiting lists for diep.
It looks like my arm and back is a few more nerves coming back to life. There is no swelling, and it's been fine all day even with replacing a system. So good news. And I will be seeing Oncologist rather than surgeon in October to get discharged from oncology.
So pleased wombat I was very pleased to also find nothing suspicious in my ovaries but it never occurred to me this is checked I'm so naive. I was quite shocked when realised they'd been checked doctor just laughed at me xxx
