Thank you so much for writing. I'd like to know what you think about me and chemo. The reason they are suggesting I have chemo is because of the size of my tumor-it was 1.5 cm. And I am triple negative and do not have the cancer gene. The oncologist said the chemo would be to catch any cancer cells floating around in my body. I just dont know if I want to go through all the trauma and side effects. I also have crohns and waiting for that dr to give me info on the affects of chemo on a crohns patient. I don't want to go through that pain again . And right now my crohns is controlled with remicade infusions. This is the main reason for my hesitation getting chemo. What do you think about all this? I am very torn. The pain from my crohns being active is just unbearable.
