I saw the oncologist today and despite them still not really knowing what the cells they found in the fallopian tube were they are advising 6 sessions of chemo and then 5 weeks of radiotherapy.
They want to get the first session in before Christmas, so we have decided to cancel the holiday we had booked. The original reason for going has changed, and it's a very long journey ~ 6 hr drive at least. We are going to take a few days away closer to home instead. Just hoping we will get a refund. Usually they don't give a refund if you cancel less than 6nweeks before going. But they have said if I can get the doctor to say that my diagnosis changed from all clear and no further treatment, to needed 6 months treatment they may refund our money.
But I'm just so totally overwhelmed. It's all suddenly moving fast having waited nearly 2 months for the final result. And there's a question mark again over my kidney function. So next Wednesday I'm having kidney tests and then a pre chemo session, whatever that is.
Then I will get an idea of when the chemo will be. I have therapy 2x a week and really don't want to miss any sessions. But that limits the days when I can fit it all in. And then they said radiotherapy is 5 weeks every day.
I'm just getting terrified. Somehow I still have to look out for my girls. And the youngest was sexually and physically assaulted in the early hours of Sunday morning. Why does everything have to happen at once.
Sorry for long post. Feeling sick with the thought of this.
