So I saw my oncologist yesterday, both radiation and medical. Looks like I can come off steroids, YEAH!!!!!!!!! Have to stay on the seizure meds (I just wanted off those cuz I have taking meds!). Radiation is doing well, I think the majority of my issues are from tykerb, but I don't have an appetite and food tastes bad. So this time around, I'm not eating till I find something good, I'm just NOT gonna eat! I have 20 lbs to loose ( at least)! As for chemo, my doc consulted with a local expert in triple negative disease (which is the pathology of the cancer). Of the 4 samples they tested, 3 were triple negative and 1 HER2+. So, that makes a big difference in treatment, mainly that there are drugs targeted to the HER2 (which I'm currently taking). However, if my tumor is really triple negative, then there are different drugs I should take. Sooo, they are sending ALL my tissue samples to this doc and her pathologists to retest and confirm. So, after radiation ee'll discuss again!!
On a happy note: my house is empty and all my stud is on the new house. Just thrown in the house, but there nonetheless!!!!
