Close Breast Cancer
I was diagnosed with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma on 10/29/2007, I had a partial mastectomy on 11/09/2007 and started chemo on 12/19/2007. Doing ok so far. Lost my hair, appetite and weight.
Treatments
- Adriamycin Too Soon to Tell
- Loss of appetite and I have this nauseous feeling everyday. I have a craving for very bland food. I am hoping that it works
- Chemotherapy Too Soon to Tell
- Lost my hair, tired and feels like everything is going wrong with my body. Constipation is a nightmare.
- Herceptin Too Soon to Tell
- Just started. I did not have any side effects so far...(crossing my fingers)
- Mastectomy Working / Worked
- My oncologist told me it was a success. I have this weird numb feeling on the site of surgery but I was told that was normal and of course one boob is smaller than the other:)
- Taxol Too Soon to Tell
- This one sucks. So much muscle pain and nothing seems to help. Sleep and my secret weapon, PRAYER seems to help
