Thanks to all who have responded. Thank you especially to Shaeff, your answer was very heart felt, and good luck to you tomorrow getting your results. I hope everything comes back way better than you expected. There's always room for one more miracle, right?
My original cancer last September was Her2+ but was not tested using the FISH method. Therefore, the FISH test was just completed using the original tissue tumor, making sure I was qualified to receive Herceptin. I guess, like you said, deep down inside I know what I have to do, but for the last few days I have been very down and pretty much fed up with all of this. What a big Whiner, huh? Instead of being thankful I only have a very small treatable problem, I am focusing on the cost of all of this. Especially after paying $5000 per Neulasta injection (6 in all) and the 6 chemo treatments, surgery, etc. The cost is probably not even the reason for me being so down, it's just something to zero in on. Does anyone else get like this, or am I just being a drama queen? Maybe it's the phase of the moon getting to me. Perhaps I should go outside and bark at the moon, I'd probably feel better. I really need to "cowboy-up", stop being such a grumbler and get on with my life. From reading the boards in here, 99% of you seem so happy-go-lucky, your spirts are high, and still, you are fighting the worst monster of you life. How do you do it?
Well, sorry to be so long winded, I really needed to vent.
Blessings, Love, Luck and happiness to all of you!
Nancy
