Hi there

Thanks Michelle,

I'm looking forward to a pathology report that says the chemo has completely melted the cancer and all they have is old tissue. That's my best possible outcome. Two weeks after my first FEC and I can already notice the impact on my cancer. The hard, golf ball sized lump that contained the four tumours is already softening. 

I've found it really useful to use a ring binder with lots of plastic sleeves and dividers. I've got one for all my test results, one for chemo, one for surgery and one for support services as well as a section for interesting articles I find. I can just drop stuff into the sleeves. I'm adding lined pages and handwriting my own notes when I think that will be useful. I've also got a separate folder that I take to appointments and I always keep my dates, any questions I want to ask and anything I need to give the doctor in that folder. It's handy because I can record questions as I think of them.

I found the pack from the NBCA wonderful and full of all kinds of useful informaiton, but the journal isn't large enough for me. I'm better of with loose leaf so I can add pages as I need them.

I'm looking forward to being part of this group. I've already picked up a lot of useful information just reading through other people's posts.
