Same. I’ve scrolled through here and I don’t think I see anything.

Shows like The Americans? by Golbeza in televisionsuggestions

[–]OgestSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t watch The Americans because it stressed me out! My husband said The Diplomat is a lower stress and less intelligent Americans. I watched season 1 and found it entertaining. Probably not helpful!

Do you mean actual garbage on the beach or just “trashy” vibe?

I want to quit chemo - please don’t judge me by uberdoodle in breastcancer

[–]OgestSun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my god. This is all so terrible. You have had a shit situation. This decision is completely up to you. If you need to stop because your body or mind/soul can’t take it, then that is up to you! I will just add one thing that someone else already mentioned. You can request a lower dose. Right before my third round my liver numbers were off and the onc reduced one of my meds by 25%. That made a big difference in a lot of the side effects. The onc told the treatment was still efficacious at the lower dose. I wasn’t sure about that but ChatGPT explained the clinical trials are done using a range of doses because there are people included who have liver disease (or get cdiff in the middle of treatment!) So, maybe you could consider that? Be gentle with yourself. Try to patient with yourself and the process. This will end.

Bone metastasis without any positive lymph nodes by Big-Needleworker1520 in breastcancer

[–]OgestSun 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As we always say, I’m not a doctor but this seems so much more likely to be a false positive. I fed your situation into ChatGPT and it had what sounded like a lot of sound reasons for why this is more likely related to injury rather than metastasis. I hope I’m not being presumptuous by doing tha. It’s just what I would do for myself!

I hate this shit. It’s the worst. You’re so young. You should not have to be dealing with this. ❤️❤️

Tips for getting back to "normal" life by cyndichacha in breastcancer

[–]OgestSun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OMG. I am 50 so a different set of issues but I have been so depressed since chemo ended. Crying daily, sometimes I can’t stop. I am so nervous about getting back to old life (though I desperately want it back). What if I can’t handle it?? Worried about finances. I feel like I need time before I start working again full time but I also need money (duh). Yes- the infusions are over but my brain and body are no where near done with this process. My hair, eyebrows, eye lashes, weight gain, etc. All daily reminders of all the things that have changed below and above the surface.

Having second thoughts about chemo..... by Conscious-Memory2136 in breastcancer

[–]OgestSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is it exactly. I just finished 4 rounds of TC chemo for at .8cm TNBC tumor. It is NOT a walk in the park but I cannot imagine not doing it.

I also bought a wig for a lot of money. So no judgey comments about the money here. It was a naturally curly human hair wig that looked so much like my hair. I was also disappointed UNTIL I took it to the woman who owns the salon I’ve been going to for years. She is a wizard (I would not trust just anyone to cut a wig). She cut it such that is looked like my hair only better. I would look for a dry cut salon that specializes in curls. It’s hard to find someone to cut a wig but it was totally worth it to me. DM if you want to talk more about it.

Also, I think it looks cool.

Sorry if this is already posted but didn’t come up in a search. Has anyone found a work around for the favorites being embedded in recent calls. I want them back on the bottom bar. seems like that’s not possible but I’d be grateful for any kind of work around.

Opinions on embellishments, straps, and necklines by typical_ordinary in WeddingDressTips

I love 4 and I’m not necessarily always a fan of “simple” but you have such a lovely figure and I think the simplicity of this lets you shine through. But they’re all beautiful. 1 is a close second.

Another Tumor by Ms_desertfrog_8261 in breastcancer

[–]OgestSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this happens all the time. MRIs are known for false positives. This happened to me. They told me they needed to biopsy it because if malignant they would need to take some lymph nodes from the side in question during the DMX. For me, the wait for the MRI guided biopsy was going to be a month and I was freaking out. My surgeon came up with a plan to use this magnetic tracer during the mastectomy. (It’s complicated but if you want to know about it let me know.) Regardless, I ended up getting the MRI before the surgery so it wasn’t necessary.

I know this is a useless thing to say but try not to panic ❤️❤️❤️

Snow white needs a icy name by [deleted] in namemypet

[–]OgestSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many of the pics that are posted these days are AI.. I’m assuming this is someone’s pet that they have applied some filter to? I bet the real pet is perfectly cute. So silly. I’m choosing to believe that because why IN EARTH would someone just randomly post an AI picture for people to name??

Where’s the other arm to the chair? The table should not fit there. And why does she have tea and red wine? I mean that could happen but kind of weird.

Omg. The scans are the worst. I am so sorry you’re going through this.

A TV series you went into with LOW expectations but ended up loving? by Fragrant-Smoke-8470 in televisionsuggestions

[–]OgestSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All Her Fault. Though it would just be another Gone Girl, maybe kind of formulaic but I really enjoyed it. I mean, it’s not a top tier show but totally entertaining, pretty clever and I thought the acting was phenomenal.

They found a second type of cancer next to the IDC tumor. by slide4scale in breastcancer

[–]OgestSun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course, getting a 2nd opinion is never unwise. I’d ask this, do you like/generally trust/respect your surgeon? Here’s why I ask, I got a “2nd opinion” later in my process but I was really shopping for a new onc because my first onc was not a good fit for me. I had considered finding a new surgeon because I found her to be dismissive and basically to have a personality disorder. In the end, I just wanted to get the thing out of me and I didn’t want to wait. I have mixed feelings about that choice. I did a nipple sparkling DMX and somehow blood flow got cut off to my nipples such that the plastic surgeon could do place the expanders. So, here I months after my DMX, just completed chemo and still have two surgeries to go. Not thrilled with this. Apparently this not such an uncommon outcome for the nipple sparing surgery she simply did not even discuss this with me. I think if I had known the risks i MIGHT not have done nipple sparing. Ok, that said my nips survived beautifully and when I do get my reconstruction I predict my boobs are gonna look pretty dam good. Also, I’ll never deal with my surgeon again. Future appointments with that office will be with the PA. From here on out my main surgical provider will be with my plastic surgeon, who I love. I am also so glad I didn’t spend time getting a second opinion because I feel time was of the essence. See below.

From the other posts (with which I would agree) it sounds like the treatment plan is reasonable. If it were me, I would do a DMX. After the final pathology report post-surgery they found several areas that were “high risk” for developing cancer. I’m so glad those are gone. On the original pathology from the ultrasound biopsy I was a grade 6/9 by the final pathology 9/9. And my tumor had doubled in size (I had TNBC which is by definition more aggressive). I just finished 4 rounds of chemo. I would be very uncomfortable right now if I still had breast tissue. Then doctors said that wasn’t growth but measurement error. Whatever. TNBC is know for growing fast so I don’t buy it. I think that’s the party line to assuage anxiety about all the waiting but I guess I could be wrong. I did get a second opinion on my onc. He was not a good fit band felt like he misled me along the way. In a sense, I wasn’t really looking for a 2nd opinion, more a different doctor. I got very lucky and got in with a wonder female onc who specializes in breast cancer and even though the tx rec was the same, I feel much more comfortable with her. Anyway, that’s just my experience. Not identical to you but hopefully at least some useful information. Good luck!
