Guys I am in turmoil. I have found out I have stage 3 estrogen and also her2 positive breast cancer. I just feel like every result I have is the worst result it could be. I have heard its harder to treat and its common it'll come back if I do fight it are there any positive outcomes out there with this cancer.?
And if you're interested check out my blog - writing it all down has helped me through the treatment
I have just enjoyed reading your blog (is ‘enjoyed’ the right word?). Thank you for sharing your journey, you seem pretty pragmatic in your approach, which I’m hoping to be as I begin the journey. Im glad you had such fantastic results after your surgery and I hope you do ok with the follow up meds. I’m on a similar plan to you, so I’ll be reading your experience with interest! I’m day 3 after my first chemo (same drugs as you had) and I feel fine - I’m waiting and wondering when it’s going to ‘hit’. Now I have a pretty good idea thanks to your blog of the flow of the cycle. I’m bracing myself for day 4 onwards!
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
