Hi there,
I can relate. I lost all my toe nails and they never looked the same again. My podiatrist told me to really scrub my feet and use Vicks Vapo Rub as a preventative for fungus. He says I may be more prone to it growing now.
As for the tests and markers, I am now 6 years post diagnosis and 5 years post treatment. I was not eligable for the Herceptin trial back then. I have not had regular scans and no markers until this new doc in arkansas. I could have done without them. They only bring questions and believe me ... we have enough of them without any help. Living each day to the fullest and focusing on what is ahead and not behind creates energy not zapping it.
Remember - we are not in control anyway. God is sovereign and there is a plan. Sometimes I wish I just knew where it was going.
Smile and enjoy your trip.
