Jackie,
I can't believe I missed your earlier post. I am so sorry to hear the frustrating news.

But....I've been the Abraxane / Cryosurgery cheerleader. I had very few side effects with Abraxane and really hardly knew I was on treatment. So...I am hoping that you can breeze through this treatment and be done with the BC. As my signature indicates, I hit the tumor with cryoablation first and then had the chemo as a safety net.

Here is to many more years of NED, it is just around the corner. Please keep us posted.

Thinking of you....Lori
