Hi Shannon
Welocme to the club no-body wants to join, but i can assure you everybody is so helpful and reassuring. I am 31 and was diagnosed last August, since had a mastectomy 4 x FEC and 4 x Taxotere followed by 15 radiation treatments, i have just found out i have drawn the 2 year study on the Hera trial for my her2+++ tumours (i had 2 in left breast). Its a long hard road, but you will come through, i was back where you are in September last year thinking i wouldn't make it out the other side of that dark gloomy tunnel, but the chemo was no way near as bad as i anticipated, apart from the hair loss and occasional sickness and bone pain it was fine. Make sure you eat well and keep hydrated, also rest up as much as you can, you really need to conserve all your energies for the months ahead. If you need any advice please email me
nikkilc2000@yahoo.co.uk and i will be pleased to help. I now have 2 inches of hair, eyelashes and eyebrows and feel great, you will too i promise!!
Love across the waves.
