Beyond Treatment
I had a 1/2 cent. tumor, Her2++ and no nodes. I had A/C, Taxol/Herc and rads. Finished 33 Rads on August 9. Am doing Herceptin until March 2007 and Arimidex every day for 5 years. I am very shaky. Afraid cancer is coming back or is already back. This is a stressful time at work and I'm afraid it's going to cause my cancer to come back. In other words, I'm a mess. I was more positive during treatment!
I've read that people get emotional after finishing treatment. Did others experience this and how did you handle it? Am I extreme? If I feel this way now, how will I feel when I stop Herceptin? MJO
