First thanks to all who responded...
Maryann, No, this is not my second go around with this beast.... It actually will be my third... I am approximately 18 months out from the second go round...
I asked the Dr. yesterday, are we beating a dead horse?? He responded, That radiation will control the local spread..and give me a better quality of life. I am going to call the Onc. Dr. next week and see what game plan , he has now...He did mention Chemo some where along the way... I had so many problems with chemo before....
Peeling of my hands and feet, neurapthy,etc.... was only able to take herception for a total of 4 times.. before my heart said no more... It dropped down to 25 % Ejection rate..I go in for a 2 d echo, on Jan 4,. so I really don't know what the Dr. can do for me..
Do I have confidence in the care?? In some ways I do.. I am just so sad, and disappointed at this turn of events...
