Hello! This is my second posting but no responses concerning my first discouraged me from sharing some very good news. My initial posting back in May 2007 requested any info on ET plus breast cancer diagnosis. Well I am thrilled to say that since finishing my last chemo treatment for breast cancer Sept. 26, 2007 my ET is still nonexistent! My platelet count is staying at 340 (previously >1 million untreated and ~ 400-500 w/anagrelide) and my oncologist says that by the way the machine is reading, the shape and size seem to be completely normal. I asked how long I have to go before saying I'm cured and he doesn't know (none of the other 9 oncologists in the office have ever had a patient with both ET and BC either). Although I had some stomach "issues" throughout chemo (along with being bald of course) now that it's over I am very thankful for the wonderful "side effect"! I'm curious if anyone else has experienced this. I surely hope so! (I'm on tamoxifen now so I guess it's always possible that it is keeping the platelets in line.)
