Thank you so much for the support, I have been through lots of tragidy in my life, more than one person deserves, but this takes the cake. My Onc. put me on Effexor for hot flashes and depression, my emotions were all over the map. I had the tram flap reconstruction, where they take the belly fat and place it up into the breast cavity, the muscles are still attached in order to keep blood flow. It was very comforting to wake up with a boob, even though I had lots of pain, it was worth it. It also is a tummy tuck because I have an inscision from one hip to the other where they took the tummy fat.

I'm so scared about the side effects of this chemo, I swore I would never put this crap into my body, but when push comes to shuve, we don't have much of a choice do we.

thanks Sue
