Hey guys, just wanted to give a quick update on my treatment. I've finished my last chemo treatment and I'm feeling great! No more nasty side effects EVER!!! I'm now working on my strength and stamina and in just a few months I'll be sporting around a stylish (very) short hair style, I can't wait!
I recently had a consult with a radiation oncologist and he as well as my medical oncologist highly recommended radiation therapy now that I've completed my chemotherapy. Radiation is needed because I had very bulky cancer tumors, a few that took longer to get rid of. Radiation will target these areas to get rid of anything left over that can't be seen on the PET scan. I get a nice little break before I start treatment on August 4th. I'll have treatments every weekday for 3 or 4 weeks. Good news is that there should be very few side effects.
Thanks again for all your well wishes and prayers!
Holly
