TCH - so far so good
Thought I'd give you all a little update on my new treatment. I've had 3 weeks of taxol/carbo/herceptin now. I feel better on it than I anticipated. Relief. Of course it could get harder as the weeks go on but as of now it's been really tolerable. Of course the most important concern -- IS it killing off all the cancer cells??? Too soon to tell yet.
I've had 7 acupuncture treatments since I've been on this new chemo. Now I think I'm going to try a couple of weeks without any acupuncture to see if I can tell a difference in side effects. My little research study.
I continue to hold in prayer all on this site who are really struggling right now and also have much appreciation for all of you who are so supportive and helpful.
After a night of much needed rain it looks to be a warm & humid morning here in MN. Wishing you all a great Sunday and hope you all take some sabbath time for relaxing and healing.
