Welcome to the group. I was diagnosed in 1990 with infiltrating ductal

carcinoma. I had one bad node, a mastectomy, 6 mo chemo, no radiation or

reconstruction. So far I am doing great.

i was diagnosed with stage II idc this past august, I have been thru a

whirlwind of emotions tests and surgeries. Ive learned to take it day by day cuz

if you think ahead it gets overwhelming and the scary negative thoughts creep in

your ever racing mind. Reading about others and their experiences makes me feel

connected and not so alone thank you for sharing your stories and i wish all of

you the very best.

Sue in NY,

You must remember everyone reacts differently to the chemo. I do have chemo

brain. I too had an excellent memory before I got chemo brain but I will gladly

keep the chemo brain over the possibility of not being here had I chosen not to

take it. There are various drugs that are given now. Not all with the same side

effects and some people don't get any side effects, I was one of them. I had 6

mo of chemo (12 treatments) and that was back in 1990. I was Stage II with 1 out

of 23 nodes positive for cancer. I am doing fine so far. As for menopause, I was

44 at the time of surgery/chemo and I stopped my period after 2 months. I had NO

menopausal symptoms at all.

As for alternative treatments, I had 3 friends stop chemo and do alternative

treatments. They actually had a better prognosis than I did, and ALL of them

died within a year leaving 9 kids. My theory is, if it sounds to good to be

true, it probably isn't true.

You wouldn't believe the people we have trying to join this group pushing their

" miracel cures " that are supposed to cure everything from Aids to ?????

I will keep you in my prayers.

Hugs

Hi all,

Going to see the oncologist tomorrow to finalize my treatment plan

and set up the schedule. The more I read the more I am beginning to

panic about the side effects. Especially " chemo brain " . I have

always been proud of my memory for things and always on top of my

game and 1/2 the time everyone elses too. Now I feel like I will

never be the same again after all this is done. The side

effects,more specifically long term are starting to make me want to

run and hide in a shack in the woods someplace and pretend none of

this exists.

The early menopause,the chemo brain/memory loss, the body aches and

nerve damage, not to mention losing a breast are all things that

should happen gradually over time as I age,, not all at once at the

age of 39. Perhaps breast cancer isn't an immediate death sentence

but yet I wonder how much it will shorten my life? I feel like I

went from 39 to 59 in six weeks. My anxiety level is definitely

raising as each day comes closer to the first treatment and I still

wonder if there isnt a better way, but as you all talk it sounds

like chemo is the best way at this point and the best chance for it

not to reoccur. Then I read this book written by a woman who chose

a natural approach to healing vs. the protocol and she calls the

chemo/radiation route cut,burn and poison therapy. Really scared

me. Guess everyone has their own approach and opinion.

Thanks to you all for letting me vent. I try venting to my friends

and all they can say is " WE " will get through this and " I can only

imagine what you are going through "

Hi,

Since I joined I've mostly been reading and learning what you all have to say

to each other. I was diagnosed on Sept 18 with Stage 3 IDBC. estrogen negative,

her2 negative and slightly positive (+1) for something else that has just

slipped my mind, 13 nodes removed, one tested positive for cancer.

Sue, I am 55 years old and I feel the same way you do. I am suppose to start

chemo tomorrow and for the next 6 months, then have a mastectomy (possibly

bi-lateral), then radiation and maybe, if I want it, reconstruction. I am

scared about tomorrow and the tomorrows after it. I've read the about the side

effects and I too am very nervous and upset about them. I don't think I mind

the losing hair part, but the aches and pains, the neuropathy, " chemo brain " ,

tiredness, nausea, etc. I am beginning to wonder if I will be able to function

at all and that has me worried. I have no husband or family here and have to

support myself financially. I do have a few good friends...and like you...they

tell me " WE will get through this. " . While I appreciate that they think that

they will get through this I am not so sure about me. I understand what you

mean about whether or not it has shorten your life any because I have been

wondering the same thing. I am very much afraid. I

keep wondering if I have months or years left and wonder if I will see the

roses bloom next spring.

I just wanted you to know that even though I'm not as young as you I am having

the same feelings.

I will keep you in my heart and prayers.

Hugs,

Not everyone has all of the side effects they list. My mom

went through chemo at age 65 and pretty much breezed

right through it. I'm 40 and have had considerably more

trouble than she did (even though I'm in better shape

physically, not to mention younger). Unfortunately, it is a

wait and see deal (and don't we all just LOOOVE to

wait - grr). Drinking lots of water (until you feel ready to

float away : ) is one thing that usually helps to flush the

chemo through your system faster. If nothing else, we

can be thankful that this is not 50 years ago and there

are so many more options, better meds, and more

support (here, here - ha, ha). Let us know how it goes

tomorrow!

hi everyone

i haven't been here for quite some time. i joined the group and loved it, especially the kindness of everyone. however, i found it was making me feel a little depressed. i was so happy to read about all the things i had questions about, but with it also came the reality. thing is, i thought i was dealing with it very well. i guess that was the biggest shock! i was in denial but knew all the right things to say to fool myself and others. anyway, i am in a better place now regarding that.

i've done some declining since last here. my ox sats drop rapidly to low 70's as soon as i stand or walk. i am on 3l sitting and 4-5 when standing. as you know, it drops and the heart pounds away. presently, i am on 10 mg. prednisone, revatio 3x day, and metformin. oh yeah, i developed pulmonary hypertension and diabetes from the prednisone. but, i lost 20 lbs!! yay..right? well, you can't tell of course having the prednisone bulge! my cough started to get alot worse and i took an antibiotic for a week and my pred. was upped to 20 for a week. it improved, but about three days later, cough came back. now i need to up it again back to 20 for 2 weeks. i didn't contact my dr. this time because i know that's what he'd say. i get discouraged because my mind feels normal and i want to do more to help myself. thing is, basically i sit here at the computer or nap. not much socialization but i am thankful to be alive and every day is a gift. i was in rehab but had to stop because getting showered and out three times a week was just too much. does anyone else find showering such a tedious chore? i've actually resolved myself to being smelly! always use to be very clean..now i let a day or two go by, always telling myself..tomorrow. and i hate watching my husband do MY housework! i remember well hating housework..until i could no longer do it..now i miss it and find myself resenting him for it. i think caregivers have it rough, but being the one being tended to is harder, don't you think?

well, i just wanted to say hi and give a little update. hopefully i can come back to the group and participate.

oh, please..someone tell me how to get to the place where i can stop all of these inbox messages!! i have over 555! i can't find how to get them off. any help greatly appreciated so i can just read things once and not multiple times. have a great day e1 and always remember to tell those you love that you do!
