Finished chemo
I finished my last chemo on Friday the 4th. Still a little bit tired and queasy but Im not sure how I feel about it. One instant Im very excited to have it over and behind me. Now Im wondering what is left to come. I've got appointments with my oncs on Wednesday, which makes me very nervous and anxious at the same time wondering what the latest news is. So far all my news have been good so I really should'nt be worried.But on one hand I've only just started with this disease and iM wondering what is to come and how much time I'll have to spend with doctors and tests, etc. But i guess when you're faced with a decision then you'll have to make it. Im just prattling on trying to get my feelings in order and hoping for the best. But I must say this site has been helping me so much along the way with information and support. Im guessing m next step is probably herceptin, along with the radiation. but I guess I just want a little break to do things other than run back and forth to the hospital, but only God knows what the future holds so I'll take it one step at a time and fight this with everything I have for my kids.
