Tomorrow's treatment

Tomorrow I will start Navelbine. Please pray that it clears up the rash so that I can finally have my mastectomy. I am desperate to have it done so I can get back to NED. Also, with such an aggressive diease, should I consider bilateral mastectomies?

I think my surgery, from what I understand will include a skin graff (sp). Has anyone else been through that?

Also, what should I expect as far as side effects from Navelbine?

Thanks ladies.

Hugs

Tonya
