I'm scared
I don't know if I'm posting in the right place, but, I am so scared. I found the lump in my breast on Mothers day. Had the lumpectomy on July 7th. At that time, I was told I was cancer free and boy, was I celebrating. Since then, I've seen the oncologist, he says I am ER- and PR- and no nodes involved, but I am HER2+. I'm afraid that I'm having trouble digesting all of this. He wants me to have a port put in and have 8 chemo treatments, radiation, and herceptin. This is all so very frightening. I'm 55 years old, my husband ran when he heard the news (after 24 years) and I'm currently living with my sister and her husband. I have so many questions, like, is it fair to put my sister through all of this if I decide to follow the doctors orders. Should I follow his orders? What are my survival rates? I'm sorry if these sound dumb, I just feel so alone right now and I don't know where to turn. Please help
