I'm currently on Imfinzi once a month, I honestly don't feel like I'm experiencing any issues with it at all, I have been extremely lucky with my treatment program. Chemotherapy was pretty uneventful, radiation was,by itself was not bad. The only issues came when I was receiving Chemotherapy, and radiation therapy at the same time, I had nausea severe enough to spend one night in the hospital. As I said earlier I believe that I have been extremely lucky inasmuch that I have gone over a year and a half with being pretty much asymptomatic with both the cancer and the treatment. I only wish everyone could have the same. I just live the best way I know how. That's the point just live like you always have, if possible. If not, do your best for yourself, it's not being selfish to think of yourself first, you are the one who's living this life.
I felt guilty during radiation and chemotherapy. They said I would burn, I didn’t, they said I’d loose my hair, I didn’t. God blessed me so much during those treatments. I felt so sorry for those people who didn’t have the results I had.
Thanks!
So glad to hear you are stable SueSeidner
I had it the last 2 months and then about a month or so when I was done. The Steroids were miracle drugs! Have another scan end of month and a Dr appointment on Feb 5th. The tumor shrunk and as of now I am stable. Keeping the faith!
