I glad to see about your vegan diet.
I am doing the same thing but decided NOT to go through the chemo and radiation.
Good Luck!

I wish you much success, you may find some very supportive information regarding stage IV as a chronic condition with years ahead for you.

I wish I were close enough to Zeeland to be in a support group with you. I'm in Ohio, a town about your size, Millersburg.

we are alot alike as I went from 1999 until 2010 before mine came back. I always thought I was stage one in 1999 but found out I was stage 3. now it is in my bones and lung .now I have it in my saliva gland but not from the breast cancer.first time I considered it a blessing as it really changed my life for the better but this time I am very bitter and really depressed. I was told in 2010 I had only a year. that I did not take very well. new dr is keeping me here but not without alot of treatment and co-pays.

WHAT DID YOU TAKE FOR CHOL??? MINE IS OFF THE CHART AND I CAN'T TAKE STATIN DRUGS.

I like your attitude! We can all stay strong together in this !

Thx for your feedback and taking the time to share your insights. I'm making a list of tips so I'll have answers when and if issues arise. From the literature Dr gave me I will receive Doxorrubicin, Pacilitaxel and Cyclophosphamide. I don't understand how they get A-C-T from that. I wish you nothing but the best.

Thx, now I'm informed. I get it. What did u do for your month sores ? And, am I gonna loose my eyebrows & eyelashes too ?
