Hello Ladies,
Well today I have chemo treatment 3 and no effects so far again, made myself a lovely dinner of salmon and vegetablesl My 2 drugs seem to be different, I am having Doxorubicin and Cyclophosphamide every 3 weeks and am having my 4th and last 23/12. Then next year I go onto Paclitaxel once a week for 12 weeks and somewhere down the track I am having Herceptin added. I seem to be the only one at the cancer clinic I attend at Nepean Hospital that is having no side effects I guess I do need a litle luck after losing my partner so close to me being diagnosed. I am staying positive but admit the thought of mastectomy does frighten me mainly being diabetic and my age, but still I going to keep fighting. You must all stay positive and help each other as much as we can, but living in different states, the only way we can help each other is throught this wonderful website.
