Well I havent blogged for a while because have felt a bit rough but have been checking out the blogs on here. So glad that Skipper is on the mend and that Andrew is back with us.
Today was my first appointment with the oncologist and the results of the bone and ct scan. To say I was nervous would be a great under exageration, sitting on the ward waiting I was verging on a full blown panic attack and hubby could see this so just kept up constant distraction remedy and it worked.
Finally name is callled and in we walked, he then proceeded to ask me if the surgeon had explained everything about the findings from my op. Yes we told him we had been fully briefed. He then started talking about treatment when I could stand it no longer and interupted (which he had said I could do at any time) and I asked if he had the results of my scans, which he had and would I like to know the outcome.......er yea. Both scans have come back clear, there is no sign that the cancer has spread anywhere else. Merry Christmas to me, the best present that I could have been given. He told me I would be getting 6 cycles of chemo 3 of Fec100 and 3 of Tam then radiotherapy and tablets after that. I could have kissed him especially when he kept saying you are a young woman, he is now top of my xmas card list. the news was just getting better and better and there is a very good chance that the hemo will not start until after xmas so looking totally forward now to a chemo free xmas the start it all in the new year. I am still buzzing with all of this and think I may just get a fab nights sleep tonight.
Hope everyone out there is having as good a day as I am. Thank you to you all for your never fading support, You guys all rock.
take care love Terri xxx
