Test results back phew....

Hi ladies 
After a nervous wait.  Results back... very surprising. I had completely talked myself into the fact to brace myself the cancer had spread . My onc turned to me and said spinal mets all 5 translucent.... liver mets all 12 still scar tissue no further cancer seen  Suddenly I felt an instant feeling of amazing happiness . She then told me they couldn't see any active cancer at all I am having an excellent response to targeted therapy for stage 4.. I just wanted to hug her so badly . But I know.....not to get ahead of myself. Not to revel in my new found knowledge. I ....for the moment can be relieved the beast within is tamed for a while. But I will keep doing what I'm doing every minute every day and never stop 
 If you want to get me you mongrel beast I will make it near darn impossible with every once of my being . Saying that every piece of cake I decline every little thing I love so much I say no too.. off for my evening run music blaring ....I hate you  cancer you make me run faster ...hear me go on your not going to get me ......
  • Irb.....thank you for enquiring about my nightmare itching ahhh yes we have found the cause but need a solution. After trialing herceptin alone and then perjeta it's the herceptin without it it just got better and better such a huge relief not to mention some welcome sleep. However herceptin is working wonders for me at present so going off it is not an option for me. 
  • Enjoy your run tonight, @Sam09. 
    Not to remind you, but have you found a solution for the itching?
    Great news, so pleased for you
