OK, thank you so much for all the kind and lovely comments I am getting, its lovely to know that you are all thinking of me. Had appointment with oncologist on friday and she said the liver has stayed the same (this is good, it hasnt grown) and is still operable :-) the lymph node she can not longer feel (was 1.5 cm last cycle) and she is very pleased with the breast tumour too :-) the other lumps she says are just normal breast tissue (forgotten what that feels like tho!!). She thinks the plan is to give me the rest of the chemo and the on with the mastectomy and THEN the liver resection BEFORE radiotheraphy!! My friend Kerry-Anne said this is probably cos they will irradiate the liver too. Onwards and upwards (fingers crossed). Docetaxel is a bit of a mare, took them 40 mins to find a vein, chemo wasnt down, forgot drugs etc BUT the had an emergency on the ward, some poor man's arterial line was completely blocked :-( blood everywhere, course I just wanted to run. I was shaking, which they were worried was a reaction but I think I just didnt wanna be there!! The drugs have made me very tired, and have a very sore throat and tongue a bit bigger than normal, have some tablets because they think stomach acid is burning throat etc (more drugs), breathing is a bit hard but all things considered, not too bad. Am really hoping to make the race for life (is there toilet breaks??) and hopefully will be there with bells on, I know you will all want a turn at pushing me xx
