Clear!!

If you are reading this then you've probably already heard the good news.  Both the CT and bone scan have come back clear - excellent!! This means that there is no sign that the naughty cancer has spread beyond my boob and settled anywhere else in my body.  However, chemo is still needed - to ensure that any rogue cancer cells that may have escaped around my body are sought out and destroyed by the avenging chemo drugs.
I will be having FEC-T chemotherapy treatment.  This will be 3 cycles of FEC, followed by 3 cycles of T.  Sounds quite simple really! 
Each cycle is 3 weeks long, starting with the dose of chemo drugs on day 1.  On about day 15 I have to attend the clinic to check my blood levels etc with a view to repeating the process once we get to day 22 (or day 1 of the next cycle).
The other news?  The decision has been made - no cold cap.  As Ian pointed out to the registrar, ice cream gives me brain freeze - I would never cope with a hat on that went down to -6C.
As I sat discussing all the side effects with the doctor he warned me the chemo would more than likely make me feel "bleurgh".  I felt compelled to ask exactly how many seminars he had attended at university to learn how to describe the effects so accurately.  He cheerfully said "Seven years of medical school and that's as good as it gets"!  It was very refreshing to have such a cheerful and positive approach to the subject by a pleasant and polite person (p-p-p) and it always makes a nice change to be actually asked by someone if they can feel my breast.  Impeccable manners!  And in someone so young.  Seriously, he didn't look quite old enough to be a doctor.  Either he is a baby genius or I am getting old...
Moving swiftly on, as I sit here typing I have looked up and there in the field in front of me is the last of this year's lambs, so small and very sweet. 
I have to crack on with my chemo so that I can watch this for many years to come. Oh OK.  Help with this for many years to come.
