From Pam Stephan, your Guide to Breast Cancer
Women who would usually have no choice but a mastectomy may soon have the option of a lumpectomy. I sure wish this had been possible, when I needed it!

Aromatase Inhibitors Shrink Tumors, Save Breasts
352 women with breast cancer at hospitals all across American participated in a study. They took aromatase inhibitors for 4 months before having surgery. Their tumors shrank, and most opted for lumpectomy. I call that progress!

Survivors Navigate Life After Breast Cancer
The good news is that more of us survive breast cancer than ever before. The bad news is that many of us feel abandoned when treatment ends. But wait - there are ways to move forward and make positive, healthy changes. Here's what some survivors have to say.

Staying Healthy After Breast Cancer Treatment
When treatment is over, you won't automatically feel like your old self. You may wonder why - and it's actually a combination of lingering side effects and the post-treatment blues. Here's some ways to work towards a healthy future.

Local And Systemic Treatments for Breast Cancer
Cancer cells are rude creatures that sometimes won't stay put. Those wandering cells can be caught and destroyed by systemic treatments. The cancer that is more of a homebody can be hit with local treatment. Be sure you know the difference in these types of treatment.
