I think it was Joanne who has this patient. Was in my LA Times mid May so I found it on reuters.com: Surgery helps if even breast cancer spread: report WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Surgery greatly increases a patient's chances of surviving with breast cancer, even if the cancer has spread by the time a woman is diagnosed, Swiss researchers reported on Monday. Although many women around the world are simply offered what is known as palliative care, to help them live a little longer and make them comfortable while they wait to die, surgery could help them live much longer, the researchers found. _http://tinyurl.com/zqrf8_ (http://tinyurl.com/zqrf8) Gail Neuman RNC CPHW SNP LNC (BC survivor since 8/04) student nurse practitioner and student midwife listowner of LegalNurseConsulting@yahoogroups.com certified high risk OB/legal nurse consultant Perinatal Nurse Associates Notary Public/Certified Loan Signing Agent PrePaid Legal Sales Associate Santa Ana, CA

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
