Recurrence, Stage IVThanks for all the support, even though I wish no one had to endure this, it helps to know I am not alone. Keishi Dx 8/8/2008, IDC, 0/3 nodes, ER-, HER2- |

Strange symptomThis is my 2nd time around with chemo and I am having a strange symptom (if they are all not strange). My eyes (eyelids) are sweating. Not so much my face, just my eyelids. This is very strange has anyone had this? I am on Adriamycin, Cytoxan and Avastin. Also, I have been getting headaches a lot. I will be doing a brain scan soon but I don't have the date yet. Thanks Keishi Dx 8/8/2008, IDC, 0/3 nodes, ER-, HER2- |

Recurrence, Stage IVI am on Adriamycin, Cytoxan, and Avastin. Also I am triple Neg. so as I understand it there are no oral drugs to put me on. Also, my bone scan was clear and I am going to do a brain scan and genetic testing soon. Thanks for the support. I put my faith in God to pull me through this, I have 2 small children to raise.

Recurrence, Stage IVI am new to this, well I have been reading but this is my first post. I am 33 now and was DX in Oct. '07 for the first time with invasive cancer. I had a 2" lump and 3 lymph nodes removed followed by chemo and radiation. I thought I was finished but a PET showed something in the lymph nodes around my breast bone. This was tested in Aug. and sure enough was cancer. I have started chemo and will do 4 treatments before more scans are done. My Onc. said she is reluctant to stage me at this point; however, my surgen said she would say I was stage IV. I guess I am here for some encourgement and advice. How freaked out should I be?
