C-Day for me - and the last. This afternoon I had an uneventful time at the Chemo clinic with my last blast of Taxotere, and third of the immuno drug Herceptin.
In future, I will return every three weeks for a half hour infusion of Herceptin, which has given me no trouble. Reduced from 1.5 hours the first time, to 1 hour the second, the drip only took half an hour today, with no extra time required to observe possible effects. From the Taxotere, I expect the usual side effects for three weeks but after that no more. This is a relief.
After my Jan 8 surgery, it looked so far ahead to this date and now it is here it doesn't seem to have been too bad. This Friday I will meet my radiology oncologist to see what plans she has for my next treatment plan, probably lasting all of July. Meanwhile I plan to enjoy summer with books in the backyard.
