I felt the same way you did last May when I quit taking chemo and changed doctors. I couldn't even go into his office for shots without getting nauseated. I even vomited one time. The nurse had to come out to the parking lot to inject me.

I decided to get a second opinion. My oncologist understood when I told him I needed to change doctor and treatment center.

I resumed treatment at the new facility with the same drugs previously used, but on a different schedule. This worked well for me.

I support your decison to rely on the Lord. This was my plan from the beginning when I was first dx. with recurrance. At first I agreed to zometa, radiation and herceptin. But, I was greatly influenced by my family and medical support to at least try chemo.

So far it has worked for me. I have had enough stability to have breaks included in my chemo schedule.

It is totally your decision. I completely understand. I did not want to live the rest of my life either in bed in fetal position or with my head in the toilet. So far I have had a pretty good quality of life.

Love and Blessings
