By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or
[email protected] to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.

Some women can take either pill and have zero side effects, others can take it and get every side effect in the book. It all depends on your own DNA makeup and how well you tolerate other kinds of medicines. I've had a life time of issues with all types of meds, be them prescription or over the counter. I tend to be hypersensitive to the fillers, binders and coatings on pills.
It took me a long time to find a pharmaceutical manufacturer that had fillers/binders/coatings that I could live with. This year that manufacturer stopped making the Tomoxifin pill, so I tried the liquid form and that wasn't user friendly for me, so I had to stop taking it.
I never took Coumadin or xeralto for blood clots as I never had a heart issue in reference to clots.
A mammogram also didn't show anything, but my primary doctor insisted she felt something, so the doctor insisted that I have a sonogram and sure enough it was a start of a tumor which turned out to be cancer.
I never told my parents I had cancer, I didn't want to upset them since Dad was still recovering from a mild heart attack. Now I wished I did, because I looked healthy they thought I could run them all over the city driving, and this doctor appointment and that doctor appointment not realizing I have a bunch of brand new doctors I was seeing on a monthly basis myself, and I was exhausted :P
The fact you have someone at home who needs your care, it will be a distraction away from worrying about the cancer.
You will find yourself being very tired for a couple of months so try not to over due it. No picking up anything more than 5 pounds for awhile. Do your post-surgery exercises as soon as you can, the finger-walking up the wall is a good one. Been there, done that, have the pink t-shirt.
