Long Time No Post

Just wanted to let everyone know I am well. I went to the University of Pennsylvania for a second opinion and boy did I get several. I don't like pitting doctors against each other but the difference of opinion I got is almost scary. The good news is after speaking with three different oncologists I am in a better place both treatment wise and mental wise. I am doing chemo again, a different form this time, one IV and one oral. It is again a three week cycle but not nearly as hard on my body. I finished the first cycle, I had my crappy days but overall I did OK. I went to work and did all the other things I normally do. I am about to start the second cycle on Monday and I expect more of the same. I will have another CT sometime in June and hopefully I will start radiation soon after that. I may be on chemo on and off for the rest of my life if this treatment doesn't "get it". My current doctor has a patient who has been on and off chemo for the past 21 years and she is doing well. If I can continue to fight the good fight with the help of chemotherapy then I will stay on it. Best case scenario would be for the combination of this new chemo and radiation to cure me. Fingers crossed!

Just so you know, I am doing well. Throughout all this I was able to run around and do Who shows, work and take care of my family so this bitch hasn't got the best of me yet and as far as I am concerned she won't!!! Sound feisty don't I??? ha ha ha

STAND BACK AND WATCH ME SHINE!!!
