Re: Anyone heard from Pam???
Thanks, PinkGirl for asking about me!
I haven't posted in awhile, but have been checking the site. Seems like not much activity from anyone much lately. Hopefully 'no news is good news."
I was going to write an update after I see the onc. on Thurs. I anticipate starting up on chemo again that day. I've been off chemo now since Aug.16 dealing with all the symptoms & dx of this other autoimmune disease dermatomyowitis. I've been on high dose 60 mg prednisone which has really taken down much of the symptoms & now I'm gradually getting the dose lowered each week. I'm not back to where I was but I'm feeling much better. I'm not looking forward to starting chemo again but I know I must. I wanted to start back on tykerb for now, but the onc. thinks it won't be effective as it should be again & wants me to start abraxane. He said he'd do some study on it & we'd decide on Thurs. I will go with his recommendation.
So that's the latest on me - I'll check in after I know more on Thurs.
