Good News.....

Dr. Kaplan just called me to let me know that the tumor is shrinking. YES!!!!! The chemo seems to be doing what it is suppose to do.
When I go in on Friday we will talk about some more test that he would like to do.


So far, I am feeling pretty good.  I am feeling like the "taxol" is going to be easier on me.  Today I was really tired. Not as fatigued, but just tired. I have had some achy joints and a weird stomach.  I am not going to work tomorrow, but I hope to work Wednesday and Thursday.  I feel a little scared, or afraid of the unknown still. Just not sure how this "taxol" is going to affect me.

  1. So happy for you! I should have mentioned, I had some achiness after Taxol but it went away after about a week.

    So glad it's working! Keep fighting!

    1. Libby, did your doctor have you take glutamine daily when you were on taxol? I have been taking that and it is suppose to help.
      I am amazed at how much better I am feeling. the fatigue is so much better.
