So I've now got my treatment plan in place and start chemo in Jan followed by Radiotherapy, Herceptin & HRT.

Last night looking through all the medications, etc that I am going to be getting for the coming year and all their possible side effects I said to my husband would it not be nice to have some side effects like mood booster, glowing skin or even hair will get a wonderful shine.  Sorry I use humour to cope with stress :p

Waiting for more appointments for MRI and CT scan as well as my doctor has recommeded I have a port put in my chest for the chemo, 2020 is going to be a busy year.
