Herceptin 5, Heart scan 3, Taxol 12, AC 4

Busy busy week and its only Wednesday! So far this week I have had a heart scan (good result) and planning session with CT scan for radiotherapy on Monday. Herceptin 5 on Tuesday (so different without the Taxol, no pre-meds or tiredness). Surgeon checkup (2nd ever mammogram and ultrasound in early November) and Workcover Dr appointment today Wednesday. To say I'm tired is an understatement. The planning session was very different to what I've gotten used to with chemo. Two male radiographers who whilst being very professional in doing their measurements and placing me just so on the table made me feel vulnerable at times; as I was topless for almost an hour with my arms above my head. Had the tattoo dots and must admit after all the needles at chemo, meh, didn't hurt. So have a start date for radiotherapy: 29/7/13 for six weeks.
