blonde77th Posted June 6, 2006 Author Share Posted June 6, 2006 Yes 40 % No 40% The reason is that test 3+ & 3- & understanding more that i may have these Ugly Cells else where and that they branched out & hit the breast & what will they hit next if i don't do it ??

Cecilia Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 That's terrible.. 3 months with 4 sessions of chemo isn't so bad. My Aunt had 3 months (and one week) with 8 (yes, 8) sessions of chemo. I don't know much, but this is what I know. Yes, my Aunt did get sick, yes, after two weeks her hair did fall out. Yes, through the first medicine (first 4 sessions) she was throwing up after every meal. Throufh the second half (last 4 sessions) with the new medicine, she had tingly feelings and her legs went numb once and she collapsed on the kitchen floor. No decision is easy to make, but lots of other women have gone through chemo & radiation. For my Aunt, she's more than halfway done. She finished chemo last week, and she doesn't need me..I'm moving back to my parents' house Thursday night. What's left for my Aunt? Radiation and her last two surgeries. Don't worry, whatever decision you make will be the best one. Take your time, and be strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blonde77th Posted June 6, 2006 Author Share Posted June 6, 2006 I was thinking of you last night and wondering how your Aunt was doing and you answered a few questions i was thinking of ,i was going to send you a pm to-day but for some reason you posted above so i thankyou !! How wierd is that eh i would say someone above is helping me !! Cecilia you are right 4 is not as bad as 8 Tell your Aunt my Prayers are with her !! I am leaning more toward the doing it & be smart & scared.......... rather than be scared & don't do it and maybe regretting it later !! Thanks !!
