So we have a plan! It is a half formed plan but it is a plan. I will continue with 2 more lots of FEC the drugs I have been having. While that happens my consultant will investigate the possibility of using a drug called Abraxane. It may not be licensed yet to be used in this country but it is used in America. The advantage of this drug is that I won't need to have steroids - yippee! At the same time he will discuss surgery with the surgeon with the possibility that I may go straight to that after 2 more FECs. If that happens we will keep Abraxane as a drug to be used in the future if necessary.

Unfortunately I was unable to have the blood transfusion today so it is planned for Thursday. I will hopefully be feeling better for the weekend when Kit is coming.

  1. It's obviously been a well thought-out plan - God inspired. Hopefully the transfusion will help you store up energy for the weekend! Love and prayers
