Hi All!
Sorry it's been so long since my last update! Finished my last round of the AC combination on Thursday. I walked a 5k in Willow Glen (1/2 a mile from my house) in celebration.
I still have 4 rounds of Taxol which starts on the 26th. Supposedly that is easier, but It also depends on the person, so I guess I'll find out.
Round 3 was really tough on me, but I think the problem may have been that I did not drink enough water. It's so important to flush this stuff out of the system with lots of water. This time I'm drinking 100 oz a day. Monday through Wednesday will be the big indicator of how I do, but I feel better now than I did 2 weeks ago at this point.
I'm so lucky to have such amazing friends and family. Anna is down every treatment and is here to care for me. I did something so right with that girl. I could not be more loved.
Wish me luck this week! And I'm half way done with Chemo!! YAY!
I have a mammogram on the 23rd to confirm that Lenny has shrunk as much as we think he has. My oncologist is extremely pleased at the reduction. If he has, then it'll be about 4 weeks off, a lumpectomy, and then radiation for 5.5 weeks - DAILY. Yuck. That's going to be a feat, but we'll manage.
Thanks everyone for your support! Love to all!
