@kware75 I am unsure if oncotype dx is indicated in node positive cancer, but if it is, I would ask for it. It is another piece of information that helps you make the best informed decisions.
I did take chemotherapy, I took Taxol, Adriamycin, Cytoxin, every 3 weeks in my first 6 rounds. It is the hardest thing I have ever done. I was sick to my stomach and they did not have most of the nausea drugs they use today. I was exhausted, and I was achy in my bones. That was the first week of every cycle. The next two weeks I tried to make up for the work, and calories I missed, then back to treatment.
What I lost, my hair, all of it, eyebrows, eyelashes, everything!😳 I also lost my toenails but they grew back. The silver lining; I lost 65 pounds.❣️I mostly lost my patience with trivial whining, sadly, I still struggle with that, I have to work harder at empathy over a hangnail. 😂😂 What I gained was almost 18 years and counting to whine about it………oh, and that 65 pounds plus a few in the interim years.
Would I do it again, YES! Because you can do the hard things in order to have a lot more good things.
There is a conversation on connect, about “ lobular cancer, let’s support each other” where you can connect with folks, and I bet they have a lot of answers for you. Here is a link.
