Herceptin, Tamoxifen and more

Hi y'all

I had my #15 out of 18 Herceptin treatments yesterday. I also started Tamoxifen. We decided on that instead of Zoladex, as it does not hurt my bones and since I am menopausal i do not have the uterine cancer  risk! This should keep the cancer from coming back since it targets the estrogen in my body to keep it from attaching and creating a tumor (I think that is what it does) I have learned from this entire experience, I was not meant to be a doctor or nurse!

Also my baby turned 1 on Friday. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.  Yesterday i was in chair #24 which was the chair I had my  first chemo in and the chair I pumped my last bit of milk for my baby in. It was a very emotional day. The center was running about 3 hours behind when it was all said and done, so I had a lot of time to think.

Today I am exhausted. Herceptin make me tired and yesterday it hit me like a ton of bricks.  This morning is just as bad. Very nauseous. Hoping it is just too much medicine in one day and that this is not going to be a daily thing. positive thoughts its temporary as 10 years of this will not be fun!

Hope y'all have a great day!

Love
Jamie
