Surgery,  Treatment

Goodbye, Port

Had my regular Phesgo injection on Thursday. I mentioned that I can now get the port removed so it got scheduled for TOMORROW. That went by quick. I remember the pulling from the first time, but now that I’ve had a double mastectomy, I think this won’t be so bad. Hopefully.

Wednesday will be my first Zoladex shot, half of my hormone suppression therapy. I asked my doc about getting my ovaries removed instead. Apparently, you get menopause symptoms either way. So if I handle the drugs, getting my ovaries would be fine. But if it’s essentially the same thing, I may reconsider opting for surgery. We’ll see. Not looking forward to menopause, but I’ve also had similar symptoms under chemo, so maybe not a whole lot will change.

Wish me luck.
