@susu2 Hey thanks, sorry to hear about the brain fog and balance issues. šŸ™ I have been blessed there, I haven't really experienced that, but I hear, like you it's somewhat frustrating. Glad you're taking it in stride and at least marking the positives - no nausea and loss of appetite! Maybe the walker will provide a bit of independence and keep you moving to try to push that fatigue. I've been going to bed early and learning to make the best of the times I do have more energy. I imagine you do the same. Well...onward is right.

Sorry I haven’t been posting lately, I was spending too much time reading posts on multiple sites like the Facebook group ā€œSisterhood of Ovarian Cancer Survivorsā€ and all the negative postings were getting me down so I only look when I want to find out about a specific treatment or problem. I guess that’s kind of selfish but I have to be careful I don’t get too depressed. I have 3C high grade, I’m 2 1/2 years since diagnosed and am facing my second recurrence. I’m being considered for the Herceptin trial as I have the Her2 gene. I’m excited about this as not too many ovarian patients have that gene, it was only used previously for breast cancer patients. It’s worked well for them so they think why not work for ovarian. I have tumors on my liver, kidney, aortic lymph and abdomen. If you haven’t had genomic testing I recommend you do as it shows what treatments are the best per your chemistry. I pray everyday for all my teal sisters and private message me if you don’t see me on here. Love and hugs to you all.
