Last Treatment

On Tuesday Marce received her fourth and last infusion of chemotherapy. We are so excited that this is her last one! She seems to be experiencing typical symptoms - not really better or worse than the 2nd and 3rd treatments. Of course we are all mentally much happier this time given that we know this is her last chemo.

In about a month she will start Tamoxifen, a hormone blocking drug which will significant reduce her recurrence risk. Here is a good article in the latest Scientific American on recent advances in the treatment of breast cancer.
