Went to clinic today, and actually saw the consultant for the first time since my mets dx.
She said she had been thinking about me just staying off the chemo altogether for the moment, until progression of the disease again, but after discussing, we decided I should stay on it, as its working so well, and she was worried that if I came off it, things progressed, then they put me back on it, I may have become resistant to it (even tho I will become resistant to it some day in the future). So, I will miss another cycle, for my next holiday, then restart after that.
I cannot say I have really felt the benefit of being off the chemo so far - maybe I will soon
This is my story, as a 42 year old, young woman, living with terminal breast cancer.
