Re: Trying to move on
Oh, lucky you! I'm in the GP2 arm of the same trial. In fact I just came back from BAMC San Antonio on Tuesday.
I have 1 last booster shot to go next Summer.
This last injection I got a huge internal response. Fatigue, aches & pains, cough, etc. I had been around a couple teachers that had bad colds and I'm wondering if it was the timing. I was catching a cold and got the injection - my amped up immune system went to battle.
I barrage my nurses with questions every time and am happy to find more and more vaccine trial options available. If memory serves me correctly they enrolled the first patient into the phase 3 portion of this trial over a month ago. There is also another vaccine trial for women who are less expressed on Her2.
So let me just add my thanks to you ElizabethTX for joining this vaccine trial. Together we can make a difference in the quantity and quality of life for future cancer survivors.
