Ronnie,
We will certainly talk more about all aspects of breast cancer & hormone therapy in the future.
We may discuss that on Tuesday, February 26th with a nurse practitioner from Georgetown University Hospital. The interview will focus on the importance of a Breast Self Exam. Check out the BSE video on my Blog if you haven't done so already.
