Hi Nixbix,
I've been meaning to message you for ages. Your story sounds similiar to mine. I was diagnosed in May 2011, had a lumpectomy, sentinel node biopsy ( clear!!), grade 3, HER2+, HR +. I had 6months of chemo - 3 months AC ( 4 rounds), 3 months Taxl/herceptin. Followed by 7 weeks radio. I'm still having 3 weekly herceptin until Oct and am also on Tamoxifen. The things we go through. Throughout all this I remained positive, had a fantastic husband, 2 wonderful daughters - 12 and 15. I also worked right through my treatment which I believe got me through the dark times. The support, love and encouragement of my work colleagues has been fantastic. Still working full time.
I was given the all clear by my surgeon in May and with my follow-up radio appointment. Another to cross off the list. I've found that I'm so much stronger than I was before. Things don't get to me as much and my coping mechanism are much better.
Take care and stay positive. You feel so much better for it. Live each day as it comes. I love your positive attitude!!!
