Last Herceptin today!
I finally get to post this, my last Herceptin treatment is today! Like others it comes with the usual fears but I know I will get through this stage as I have gotten through the others. Just glad I can share this with others that know how this feels.
I am so glad for all the Dr's and nurses care but if I don't have to take another step inside the infusion room I will be blessed.
Just have to wait until March to get reconstruction, can't wait for my new boobies
