It's tough to make this call on whether to go with 4 or 6 rounds of TCH. I tolerate it well, yet I hate how awful I feel. I've lost my hair. Another doctor friend of mine said, "What if there's another lingering cell somewhere?" I want them all gone so I don't have to repeat this in a few years. Is a 6 round treatment more of a guarantee than a 4 round treatment? No one can make that call. Here I am, a Stage 1 little bitty cancer, and you ladies out there with big biopsies and multiple chemos and liver resection surguries and hospital stays are inspiring and nurturing us newbies. It is a time to be thankful for you, and my prayers are with you daily! I shall focus on the good in all this. You are all part of the good.
