After all the chemos I have been through - I thought  I would have it worked out by now. This is my second round of taxotere and the dosage was lowered due to the intense bone pain after the last one.

My body is rattling with pain killers (dont think I have taken so many panadol in all my life). Let alone any of the other prescribed meds. Just dont have the get up and go  and I am not even doing that much. More days in bed resting!

Decisons on surgery

Warning I am a bit down and heavily medicated. What's new hey - on the same rollercoaster. Had second last chemo 5 days ago.
Last chemo to come of Taxotere  22 Aug yeah!

Then surgery - I have to decide on lumpectomy or mastectomy. I am stuck - and needing some guidance - I understand there  are many different reasons why we chose one as to the other.
