Re: New Here & Need Words of Wisdom
PinkFlamingo, there is an entire thread on TCHP. I have my 3rd on Wed and will ask the MO about scans to see what is happening. I'm curious, but also, know I'd be sad if they didn't show anything... Stay positive! It is tricky doing this chemo stuff and still having the cancer in our boobs, but the FDA says that is what we must do for Perjeta... So, trying to think on the bright side, I realized if I was healing, when the big D hit, those incisions would HURT, so maybe neo is the way to go. See, always a silver lining, just have to look hard sometimes.
