Good morning everyone, I am so scared I have spent all morning trawling the web for side effects of every secondary I can possibly have and as usually done a good job in scaring me whitless.
I get my CT scan results today and have convinced myself I have more problems due to still being sick over 4 weeks after radiotherapy, which was a quick one shot. I know the tabs I am on cause the side effects I have, dry mouth, sickness, nausea, tiredness.
Oh I just wish the waiting was over and the thought of getting in the car and the waiting room and then the consultation, eeekkkk.
Hope the others that are having results today are coping better than me.
best of luck Ann B xxx
Good luck Ann - will be thinking of you and hoping all is well. Seems like quite a few ladies are getting results today. Do let us know how you get on.
Hi AnneB, Hope your results are good ones. Please let us know when you hear. Same to you Sarah…will be looking out for your results on this thread. Love to all, val
Sending you lots of positive vibes and good luck, I had my first CT scan since starting letrozole yesterday and it is showing no progression…so good news can happen :o)
Don’t want to tempt fate…but not too bad at all!
Minor hot flushes but they seem less than when on Tamoxifen or Aromasin! and the bone aches are definately less than the Aromasin. I am more than happy to stay on this drug!
Hi everyone, many thanks for your good luck wishes which I think paid off.
My ct is showing a couple of tiny tiny tumours in the other breast the mx and also in chest area but oncologist said these are a piece of cake to sort them out as she was putting me on chemo anyway and the same treatment should work well.
Im going on Herceptin,capecitabine and vinerlbine so will go looking threw posts on them now to pick up hints on dealing with se.
Hi AnnB, I have only been on one of your new drugs…Capecitabine…so if you want to ask anything at anytime feel free to do so and PM me if you prefer. Good luck and hope you have few side effects. Take care. Love V
4ish hrs to go for Mrs ZZippy (Sue) until we see the consultant and get all the op results, good ones hopefully ??
Not sure if this should be in here or the pathology results thread but hopefully “they” tell us today when we meet oncologist either next week or week after followed by chemo according to the initial diagnosis last month.
Here’s hoping for an easy first day of term getting the kids back to school before flying down to the hospital and having a better idea of where we stand and whats happening
Everything crossed for you Les, hope Sue gets great results. I’m away for the next two weeks but I’ll be checking in as soon as I get back. Good luck and god bless. Lots of love, Dianne x x x
Les, Fingers crossed for you and sue,looking at the time of your post you havnt been able to sleep, so lets hope that you have a better night tonight.xxx
Ann B, Dont the onc’s use some good turns of phrase, I am pleased that your scan came back with something that can be easily sorted. Good luck with the meds and hope you dont get to many se,s.xx
Not good news for me I am afraid. Femera has not worked and now I have to go onto chemo. V scared and upset at the minute. Don’t know what my regime is yet as bc nurse had left by the time I was finished with onc. FEC T is what they said. Also have a barrage of tests again 8-(
x sarah
Oh well, afraid no news as the consultant told us results not back from pathology dept :/, come back again.
Booked in again for next week :/, talk about hanging by a thread,
mentioned, Thursday, then Wed, then come in Monday but ring after 9 just to see if still held up due to bank hols and leave etc, keeping everything crossed for another 4 days at least now.
i can see me being a joy to work with when i go back in work sunday afternoon/evening
Hi Cromercrab/Sarah, Sorry that your Femara is not working for you. I am on it too but have no idea if it is working for me or not but feeling ok (and functioning) so hoping that means it is. I don’t have any personal knowledge about your new regime. Please let us know how you are doing. It brings you down when you get news like this. Hugs coming your way.
Hi Zippy/ Les, What a shame you didn’t get any results yet. I think that is one of the worst things to deal with…not knowing…when you know what you are dealing with it is generally easier to cope. Hugs to you too.
To everyone else hope you are ok. Diane I hope you are having a lovely holiday. Love Val
