Not So Boring Update

   I got Taxol #5 today. I'm supposed to have 7 left, but since my fingers are getting worse, I might not be able to finish all 12 treatments. If they're still worse next week, Dr. C says we're going to stop the Taxol altogether and switch the Herceptin to every 3 weeks instead of weekly. This would also bump up my potential surgery date to February instead of the end of March. I have an appointment with the surgeon January 19th, but they might call me if something sooner opens up. AND this would mean I could potentially finish radiation before  graduation (May 12th) instead of trying to schedule around it. I really wouldn't mind finishing chemo "early" because it generally makes me feel like crap, but I also need to make sure I do as much as I can this time to prevent this from happening again. Dr. C says it's about balance, and the numbness in my fingers might never get better so we don't want it to get any worse. So we'll see what happens next week.
