Good news!

i am having neoadjuvant (before surgery) chemotherapy given with hormone therapy as part of a trial to treat my rather large (9cm) IDC tumour and saw my oncologist today for check up before my 2nd of 6 x 3 weekly chemos. Oncologist thinks it has shrunk by at least 1cm already! We are headed in the right direction! So great to get a good result! Happy dancing right now!

    Thanks everyone! Time to go and pour more weed killer on it on Thursday. It made me quite sick for a week last time, so I know it won't be pleasant but it's nice seeing some results.

    @ccasper, that's great! The whole concept of chemo first was a bit foreign to me at first, but it's great being able to watch it shrink isn't it! Kind of satisfying
