Loss of eyelashes

Sorry to hear about your pathology.I know how you feel as my cancer came back 7yrs later in the same spot despite clear margins and radiation.I thought I'd done the hard yards but then it came back,growing 3cms in less than a year.I have no lymph nodes so no way of telling if it travelled.I felt sick to the pit of my stomach.I had the body and bone scans and fortunately they were clear. I had the mastectomy and then some chemo last year.My oncologist said that chemo mops up stray cells but won't really get rid of a mass - just reduce it. I guess you have to tell yourself that hopefully chemo did it's job on any stray,breakaway cells and the mastectomy got rid of the mass that was abit big for chemo to tackle.It is too disheartening to think otherwise.I'll admit that I've lost abit of faith in radiation and chemo but there isn't much choice is there.As time goes on I don't think about it so much and that will happen for you Jen. It's a normal response to feel gloom and doom with this cancer stuff but in a year's time you'll feel more confident that you are ok.I like to read inspiring autobiographies where people overcome great adversities in their life.For an attack of the miseries I either get busy or have a glass of bubbly.Maybe meditation might help- just find something to distract yourself with if you feel you are going down the doom path.Thinking of you.
