DCIS - to be or not??

I've been following your posts and I am so pleased for you that the question of why you had to have chemo is now resolved and that it wasn't given for no good reason. But I am so sorry to hear that you have now been diagnosed with IDC, and after being messed around with diagnosis in the first place. That must have been so frustrating. Although not as bad as yours, I had that horrible hand/foot syndrome too (so I can totalling sympathise with you) with the skin on my hands and feet peeling like bad sunburn and I lost nearly all my toenails. I also had peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage) in my fingers which made handling hot and cold things really difficult and manipulating small objects like pens, cutlery, buttons and shoelaces etc. a major challenge. I was scheduled to have eight rounds of chemo but my last one was cancelled too and I was just so relieved. It's amazing how quickly this year has gone for me after thinking that this whole horrible nightmare was stretching on into the distance and I couldn't see the end. I'm sure it won't be long before you will be at the other end of this tunnel too. I admire your positive attitude and courage. I hope your daughter is coming to turns with all this and you both can hold each other close and keep smiling. Laughter is a great tonic. Good luck with the next part of your journey. Sending you hugs Janey xxx
