Yippee!!!!
Yes, I had my final zap of radiation yesterday. Woo Hoo! I have finished a 28 day course of the entire left breast followed by a 5 day course to the tumor site. I am so happy I can return to my regular life now. Although I am red, spotty, and peeling; I am feeling fine, and I AM DONE! (tamoxifin to begin next week)

Hooray!!!!! I am so happy for you to have that part behind you (and glad to hear that your fever has subsided.)I hope that the tamoxifin is uneventful (are there any expected side effects?) And you have nearly made it to Spring Break:)
ReplyDeleteHannah and the kids missed you very much so they will be happy to see you tomorrow. Take care Marie!!!
love,
Karyl

Hi Marie
ReplyDeleteLisa from CalHaunts here. Thank you for writing about the process- it's very helpful to know what to expect, and seeing the picture of "the big machine" in advance would take away some of the trepidation. I don't have the C word yet, but the odds are pretty high. I'll be doing the self-check regularly from now on and not relying on just the mammogram. That was important advice. Thanks for sharing. Please continue to share and be well!
