Starting Chemo Dec 2006Ladies, you all have such a great power to you, my thoughts and prayers are with you all. I start my first treatment today of a/c, I too am incredibly nervous, but the pet scan showed more cancer in three different locations so I guess I have no choice anymore. One step at a time huh. Christine

Starting Chemo Dec 2006Sounds like we have the same treatment plan coming up for us. My first treatment is on the 5th. Not done until June good lord that seams forever away. My dr. said I did not need to worry about constipation, but i hear alot of women having that problem...did they discuss that with you?
I got my port in and had my muga & pet scan then they did a ct scan which has me worried because that was not scheduled until they looked at the pet on the monitor. I see my oncologist on Friday for the results. God I hat waiting it always seems to be bad news. I went and bought two wigs and some caps yesterday so guess I am physically ready to loose all my hair. I think this is the scarriest part. I am afraid I am going to look like Uncle fester lol  . Hugs to all you brave ladies out there. I can't wait to get to the other side. |

Starting Chemo Dec 2006Oh Cathy,
Prayers are with you, I got my port put in yesterday and I woke upp this morning just crying my eyes out. Sometimes it seams like we just can't take anymore, but then God gives us another day. Try to take the good out of everything and leave the bad behind. I start on the 5h I'll be on this long journey with you. Feel free to pm me if you would like, Christine |
