Back in the chemo saddle

I didn't have chemo last week due to the whole appendix fiasco, but I was back in the chair yesterday. My blood is fine; they even checked my iron this time because I was a bit anemic. I just realized I only have two more treatments on the taxol/herceptin, then they will do another breast MRI and a mugascan (checks my heart).

Then, I head into four treatments of the heavier stuff - every other week. It's called A/C (adriamycin and cytoxan).

After that I gear up for my lumpectomy. Oh yay, another surgery! When they wheeled me in for my appendectomy, I felt like an old hat this time. I was petrified when I had the port put in - this time I was yukking it up with the nurses and anesthesiologist; next thing I know I'm in post-op and don't know why I'm there! Some drugs.

Speaking of which, I got some medical herbs today if you get what I mean. Nice. And just in time for the U2 concert tonight. Yeah, this old lady will never change. And I'm not calling myself old, but let's just say I've lived some life so far.
