Has it really been months since that last post? I've had 4 rounds of crap chemo (ie Epirubicin, Cytoxan, and 5-FU), and am now 1 round into my Taxol. While I faired rather well with the first rounds, they weren't without their share of misery. The constipation so bad I thought shit would come out my mouth, the nausea (thankfully mild), extreme fatigue, cysts and abscesses from my hair trying to grow back in the worst of places, the arm pain, bone pain, etc. But now I'm on Taxol and so far so good. I feel much better than I did after my rounds of crap chemo (though maybe cause it was only the first round). Other than mild achiness, all seems ok. Now let's not jinx it!
Had my first PET scan since diagnosis, and miraculously it appears that almost all my cancerous spots have disappeared! I worry about getting too lax though... makes me a little nervous actually, like that was maybe too easy. Like maybe there's another shoe that's gonna drop like a piano in those cartoons on my head. Anyways... I try not to stress about those things. But I do it SO well... :0)
