My Treatment Plan Freak out
hi everyone,
So, I now have my yucky outlook for the next few months and years to rid myself of cancer once and for all. I do feel blessed that it is curative, so I am thankful to the universe...

Ok, first veins-chemo trashes your veins and even though at times I hate my port it certainly cuts down the trauma of finding and using a vein then the bruising afterwards.
I had AC x 4 + 12 Taxol from January to June this year. Once you get past the first chemo and fear of the unknown and the AC the Taxol is a lot easier to handle.
I had 30 rads over six weeks and other than the daily grind of attending appointments it went really well but everyone is different.
I'm about to do Herceptin 13 of 18 on Christmas Eve and even though I had planned to have my port out this month because of the pain and discomfort I decided to grit my teeth as it were and continue on as soon as I have a needle back in my veins I bruise again.
If you have any questions that I can help with please ask. Regards Cheryle :)
