More details of trial .It will run for a year Help!!!!!!!
Feeling devastated today and I received details of trial. One year.... six months weekly then monthly for six months. I will have to travel to Peter Mac Parkville. All drugs have side effects this one not too bad. My husband is over it wants a break for me.
As I am triple negative I cant take any drugs. So what am I complaining about when others have to take drugs for five years plus.
I am probably venting my sheer frustration at not being able to leave hospitals and doctors behind. Thanks @Primek who mentioned a positive experience for her sister.
I cannot say no as I will feel guilty if I do. I have a chance to reduce my chances of cancer reoccurring I know I should take it . Another year of being a patient........I was looking forward to being normal ..long holiday...climbing Mt Everest (not really).

- iserbrownMemberYou mention taking drugs. I've only got 2 months and 8 years to go with my drugs! Lucky me geez!
- iserbrownMemberWell I say excellent! Yes you are understandably worn out by it all and would love to find normal again! How good is that a trial treatment that may give a better outcome. Peter Mac Parkville is easy to get to. A couple of tram choices on Elizabeth street.
Go girl I'm sure you will benefit greatly.
Take care and sending you a virtual hug xx
