Hello
I've just been diagnosed with invasive ductal cancer grade 3 triple negative I'm so scared is anyone going through the same?
Hi, not too bad. Cold cap was tolerable after the first 10 minutes which was brutal. Not felt too bad since apart from very restless, which could be because of the steroids I took for the first 4 days, along wity lack of energy and sweats at night is probabaly the worst side effect I have had so far. Just thankful have had no vomiting xx
I spend so much time worrying about you Harleybear, in case you do get even worse news. I am beyond excited that you have managed to get some good news for a change. The fact that your lymph nodes are clear is a massive good statement. If lymph nodes are clear that is TERRIFIC news. Your lymph nodes are the first line of defence that cancer can breach. You can now go on holiday without worrying so much. Change of drug good news also. So well worth the chat with the Oncologist. Well done well done well done and so happy for you xxxxx
I have just finished x12 weekly paclitaxol with no issues at all other than a bit tired. It is much gentler and a smaller dose having it weekly. Good luck you deserved it lovely lady. Xxx
Thankyou , you are such a lovely lady for worrying about me . I am now away 2 mins from the beach and it’s wonderful . Cancer can bugger off for a few days this is my time now xxxx
Hi key so sorry you are fed up today . It is very frustrating but it will pass and you will start Improving again . Not easy to see that when in the bad days . Sending a huge hug xxx
Hello sunshine glad you didn’t suffer with side effects I am really hoping that it is kinder to me than the EC. Xxx
