I am freaking out!!!!!!
I guess I was happier being ignorant about this adventure called cancer. I just assumed that I would have my surgery and take some heavy duty chemo and be done with it. Now I am reading that since I am HER2 pos that the journey has just begun. Metastasis in other area???? No one talked about this. OMG, OMG, OMG!!!! I don't know what to think now. the wait for the oncologist is too long and I want to know now what is going to happen.
