so i made it through chemo...well...not all of chemo...
i was supposed to do 16: 4 AC and 12 TC
i did the 4 AC, then managed to do 9 TC, then for number 10 i only did taxol, no carbo (neutrophil count was too low to get both).
and then that was it..
the oncologist stopped my chemo so i didn't get 11 or 12 of the weekly taxol/carbos
she didn't want to exacerbate the neuropathy....
so that's that...
my surgery has been advanced by two weeks to june 18th...
the mammogram/ultrasound that they did last week shows the cancer in my lymph node has disappeared, and the tumor has gotten smaller (but hasn't disappeared).
but i suppose it doesn't matter as i'm getting a mastectomy, so the whole thing is being lopped off anyway...both of them (DMX)...
and then once i'm done with that, i'll begin radiation...
i've been having fun planning the family trip for next summer...
disney cruise and DLP.....by then hopefully this will all be a distant memory...
