Invasive Moderately Differentiated Ductal Carcinoma T1cNOMO Stage 1
Estrogen receptor-positive 1.3cm
Surgery was Dec 20 and a lumpectomy was performed. Good news!
My first appointment with the radiologist was December 30 (day before our wedding anniversary).
My first appointment with the chemo oncologist was January 4, 2012. The next day, a power port was implanted in my left arm.
My first chemo was January 12. I watched my arm and chest carefully and finally showed my oncologist who immediately had an echo done and had me admitted. Multiple blood clots.
My last chemo cocktail was April 26. I still have Herceptin every 3 weeks.
Daily radiation took place from June 4 to July 19.
I began the 5 year pill on August 27, 2012 ~ The journey is not done “yet”
