Today was Chemotherapy Treatment #3. Treatment #1 was bad, and treatment #2 was good so there is no telling how this one will go. So far I've been tired and a little sick to my stomach, but nothing too bad.
At my last doctor's appointment, my doctor said he could no longer feel any lymph nodes in my neck. Yay!
I had a chest x-ray so we could see how the nodes in my chest are responding to the treatment, but I haven't heard anything yet. He said I may only have to have 3 or 4 more months of chemo which would be awesome. His biggest concern is that, if I have less chemo, I will have to have more radiation; since the radiation would be concentrated on my neck and chest, there is an increased risk of me getting breast cancer.
For those who don't know, I shaved my head a week ago. My hair started falling out 2 days after my second treatment. It was a huge mess and it made me very sad to watch it happening so I had to take control of the situation. I am glad I did it; I just wish I didn't have to.
As of now...3 down, 9 to go!
