Re: new diagnosis in addition to bc?
Pam,
I'm glad they think they found and answer to the problem...but I'm so sorry to hear you have to deal with yet another medical issue. Especially one that sounds serious, and makes you feel so bad. I hope their wrong and actually find a much simpler issue that just hasn't resolved as of yet. That last chemo regimen you were on was quite a combination...maybe its just taking longer your body longer to recover? (Crossing my fingers and hoping for the best.) Stranger things have happened.
My heart really goes out to you Pam...it's rough enough to battle with cancer with all the endless appts, scans and what not..now this added on top of it all. I can only imagine how your feeling right now...and it's not good. I will continue keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. (I'm seriously hoping their wrong about this autoimmune diesase and it's just going to take your body a little longer to recover this time?) Sending lots of healing energy your way.
Chelee
