Hello Kirsten, my surgery was six weeks ago and because of the HER 2 positive, in one side, 3 different t ones on the other side, the oncologist is keen to get the chemo started, I’ve certainly messed that up. I’m so tired of waiting to get any results back from all test they’ve run on me and no visit as yet from my surgeon who couldn’t get me back into hospital quick enough. 😢
I’m having 12 weeks, every week of chemo plus a targeted drug every three weeks for 12 months for the HER 2 +, so I guess there was a lot going on in my head. You talk of getting a port, I think I’ll have to agree with you on that as since coming back into hospital my canulars have played up and no veins have been easily found. 😢 I’m feeling very much like a worn out pin cushion.
thank you for your encouragement, it’s mush appreciated and our pet is a small parrot who shouldn’t cause any issues.
thank you again. Jo.
