Went to the dr on Thursday, got the path report from my surgery. In addition to the stage 0, non invasive cancer they went in to get, there was a stage 3, invasive cancer in there too. Five of the 14 lymph nodes they tested were cancerous. That’s cancer #3. darn.
They want me to have chemo again. I don’t think I can do that, besides, it didn’t help last time.

Oh, no, I'm sorry to hear you're facing chemo again, Shimmer1.

I hope you don't mind that I'm pinging the whole list, in case anyone else on the list can offer more advice.

Do your oncologists have a different kind of chemo to offer you, if the last regimen didn't work? I had ACT. So far, so good (fingers crossed).

Also, what else did your pathology report on Thursday say? For example, is this new tumor hormone-positive?

Well you might not be here now if it hadn’t worked somewhere....

You’re decision of course, but not taking it you also know what to expect.

Sorry your facing this.....may God lead your decision according to his plans for you.

GOOD NEWS!

Shimmer1 had a PET scan, and no more cancer was found.

She wanted to share the news. :-)
