Office visit

I had my first visit today with my oncologist since starting my tamoxifen regimen in April. I was a little nervous but knew I felt fine.
But I didn't know I'd get a pin prick on my finger so several drops of blood would go in a vial and then be measured for white and red cell count. It wasn't bad jut a surprise and the results turned out well also.
And she and I also talked about the hot flashes. As the tamoxifen pushes the estrogen out of my system, they've increased. Can't take any hormones to help but that's okay. I'm just glad this first follow-up visit went well.

And on the bra thing, found one. I went to a specialty shop and spent awhile trying on all kinds of bras. I'm happy now.
