In my experiences with my wife’s liver issues and my own cancer and kidney issues, liking your doctor goes a long way.Appointment today.
I forgot to mention that my FIL is a retired Doctor, so that is a helpful resource. While waiting for our doctor my wife told me that before her Dad said to forget whoever we were referred to and that he wanted us to go to a specific Doctor... it was the Doctor we were referred to.
She was very nice and I think my wife is very comfortable with her. She apparently has the bona fides as well based on reputation etc.
She went over the test results of what has already been done. We do not know the stage until further tests are done. There are multiple tumors (either 2 or 3) and it is a grade 3. Various further tests will be scheduled like CTscan, MRI, etc which will show stage and other info. It is the most common type of cancer but not the hormonal one so no hormonal treatment is likely. That my wife doesn't feel bad or have health issues is a good sign that it hasn't spread.
The course for treatment is chemo right away and then a mastectomy followed by radiation. The Doctor said.... I forgot how she put it..... maybe.... this cancer reacts favorably to chemo.... which is why chemo is up first.
My wife teared up when they said the mastectomy but other than that she held up well. After the appointment, she went to work. The Doctor said that people that continue with life as normal tend to do better. If that is the case.... my wife already as this thing beat. I asked on the way home if she wanted to get lunch and she said sure but then we forgot we had to pick up her work car so we did that and she got ready and left for work afterwards. Me asking about her eating was more about trying to judge how she was feeling because asking her how she was feeling and getting "ok" was nice but her appetite really tells me how she is doing emotionally. After the Doctor left, she said she might as well do the double mastectomy in a matter of fact kind of way.
Along with the tests they are working on scheduling the chemo doctor (forgot the real name), dietician and that once all the test come back, it will go to a board of doctors for them to review and make recommendations or additions based on all of that in case there was something they see. I liked the Doctor because she didn't approach it like she was a god in control of everything but that she was there to use her expertise and "be in the background all the time" even when dealing with other Doctors etc.
I asked some questions but then I kind of froze, so I didn't ask everything I wanted to. I should have written it down. After asking some things.... the next thing I wanted to ask was the survivability rate but I couldn't do it. I was going to break down and I didn't want to break down and instead be strong. Once I realized I couldn't ask that, I blanked on everything else.
The nurse came in and was very nice as well. Gave us a book and a care package from ULTA. She was very focused on her (our) emotional well being and going through the process.
So... I guess a mix bag.... multiple tumors grade 3 is not good. Her health and that it is a kind that chemo is effective against is good. We will see how all the tests go through.
Trying to focus on doing life. We didn't talk about telling people in general and our kids but being that we will start with chemo and that it will prob be about two weeks to start, I think we need to tell the kids as I don't think you can really hide that.
A big reason that I have kept my own struggles to myself is that she is doing great keeping positive. I don't want me to bring her down on that. I can't control how I feel but I can control what I do with it... and I think right now it is better for me to work through it and vent to others other than her. It may not be the best for me but I think it is best for her and I am ok with that.In my experiences with my wife’s liver issues and my own cancer and kidney issues, liking your doctor goes a long way.Appointment today.

Some great news in there!Yesterday was the appointment with the Oncologist. Very nice man with great bedside manner.
Most of all the tests that were done have come in except the bone one. The meeting was pretty much the best I could hope for based on what we already knew (that there were multiple tumors in her breast and armpit, grade III). One thing that was negative but I think it was more news to me than actual news is that some lymph nodes under the armpit have cancer.
Other than that the big news for me was that there was no detection of any cancer anywhere else. That is obviously huge. We still need the bone stuff to come back but the Doctor said unlikely to have anything. I asked about stage and based on everything he sees, stage 2 which again was best case scenario knowing she had localized spread for sure.
Apparently the HER2 vs hormone thing cancer use to be that the HER2 was the one you didn't want but because of advances in medicine, the HER2 is the better one to have now. He laid out three different treatment plans. The first two were the normal options and the third is a clinical trial. From what I can see the clinical trial is more about how they administer the drugs of option 1 than any different or added drugs. It is ACTH. The normal option is to give all the drugs through... 12 weeks (I think, she gave all our notes to her Dad). The clinical trial focuses on the HER2 drug side first with adding the other chemo drugs later if needed. I asked the doctor, if it was his family member, which one would he tell them to do and he said the clinical trial. My wife was leaning towards the clinical trial. We gave all the info to her father (as mentioned earlier, he is a Doctor) so he could weigh in. We are not locked into the trial and can change at any time if for any reason the Doctor or us want to. Best case is that we start and the tumor shrinks and dies then we do the surgery.
The other thing we are waiting on is the genetic testing. If not genetic then there is very little worry about it reoccurring in the other breast. If it is then it could and there may be other treatments or do surgery on both breasts.
She has to do a couple things... a heart test thing to get a baseline for one of the potential side effects of the meds and a port implant to assist with stuff and then we will begin treatment which should be somewhere between 1-2 weeks.
I am feeling way better now. I was really fighting depression. Trying to be strong for her but struggling emotionally/mentally then trying to hide that from her. Our anniversary was the 30th. 12 years. I am the *** that forgot about it that day and on top of that the gift I ordered is still not in.... and I went back in and saw that I am a moron and put 10 years on the throw rug (linen) instead of 12 years. I think because I put the date on there (10/30/10) and had 10 on my mind.... I dunno.... I am just an idiot basically. So, here is your lame late anniversary present that is actually an error hon!
Oh and it was a really odd experience watching another man feel up my wife's bare breasts for several minutes and not want to lay him out.
Yesterday the throw rug came in. I told her before she got home "Your anniversary present is here... and um.... well.... it is just further proof that you married underneath you." She said "oh no, what?" and I said, "Well, you will see"Some great news in there!Yesterday was the appointment with the Oncologist. Very nice man with great bedside manner.

Give yourself some grace! I bet she will.....you guys can laugh about the throw rug for years to come.
Sending positive thoughts your way!
Me being an idiot? No, unfortunately no shtick.This should become schitck from now on. Just sayin.
Oh, no-no. If it were me, this now becomes a running joke until the end of time. I still have stuff I pull out every now and again from when my wife and I were dating.Me being an idiot? No, unfortunately no shtick.This should become schitck from now on. Just sayin.
I dropped her off for another test today. Before that she told me that she didn't think I should coach my sons basketball team this season due to her going through treatments and not going to be available a lot of the time to do the driving for drop off/pick up etc for the kids various sport stuff.
I am not going to lie, I enjoy coaching so it would suck for me but the thing I am really torn on is that the one thing that I thought was important with the kids was to try to keep things as normal as possible for them and for them to not lose out on things. On the other hand, I totally understand what she is saying. She isn't going to be able to help with that stuff for a long stretch and will need help for getting to appointments and just someone tending to her etc.
I did not reply to her because I am still processing it. I am not sure what the best thing to do here is.
This was not a one off type thing. I dead pan it a lot but I have a self-depreciating sense of humor.Oh, no-no. If it were me, this now becomes a running joke until the end of time. I still have stuff I pull out every now and again from when my wife and I were dating.Me being an idiot? No, unfortunately no shtick.This should become schitck from now on. Just sayin.
And just for fair play: I was making a joke, to my self, when I was planing for an upcoming anniversary. I was creating a scavenger hunt for my then young kids in order to keep them out of our hair for awhile. Well... the joke escaped, total screw up on my part. The kids and wife saw it. This slip still comes up every so often, even 8 years later. It is now hilarious. Both my wife and kids needle me about it when the time is right.
We are human. Mistakes happen. Laugh at it.
We talked about it and she decided on wanting me to coach... she just asked that if I had the option to ask to be the Assistant Coach and not Head Coach to make it easier for me to miss if needed. Her concern is more about the logistics of it all. Our daughter has club volleyball and school volleyball. My son will have the basketball and then also club swim. Last year at this time, we just had school volleyball and my sons basketball and there was more than a little conflict on scheduling where she would have to take my daughter and I would coach the team. It will be busier this time around with the added sports and there is a good chance there will be times she isn't feeling well enough to do anything.I dropped her off for another test today.

Just a thought here, but this may be your wife’s way of telling you that she emotionally needs you there with her at these appointments.
Well you got a great wife, right? I'm sure the kids are lovely.....so you're doing something right!This was not a one off type thing.

I told my kids about this in the car. My daugther asked "why did you do that Daddy?" and I replied, "Well, because Daddy is an idiot". They laughed.
There is about 15 years worth of things to laugh at- this is not a tep ten thing. lol
What is this voodoo you speak of?Ask her.I don't know if I should do or not do anything.
They are.now I have to hope the chemo drugs were sufficiently diluted as well
LotsAHelpingHands.Trying to coordinate help from three primary people that will assist with mostly things like pick up/drop off for kids activities and other assistance needed.
I was going to just do my own calendar and then ask for help in a group text when needed help. My sister in law, one of those helping, said to do Google Pages or something (I dont know what or how) and just spent time trying to figure out what. She said it would be best because then people could just got in and mark things or whatever. Does anyone have any suggestions? Preferable to me being able to import/export easily from a calendar too.
Again, the most help would come in assisting me with my kids activities (if that makes a difference)
Getting a drip on you isn’t ideal, but as long as you washed the affected area thoroughly with soap and water as quickly as possible it shouldn’t be an issue.Second chemo round today. Only two hours and went well with no side effects. She has been doing well since the first treatment... even worked a few days. Some fatigue, some nausea, and the normal things. She has complained about cotton mouth and a metallic taste in her mouth. Her spirit is up and she is doing well.
For those who have never had someone close go through cancer treatment... you are suppose to be very careful about any body fluids. I basically have been kicked out of our master bathroom. But tonight, she used the bathroom and it overflowed for some reason (it really doesn't happen unless one of my kids ends up putting an entire roll of toilet paper or something like that). So, she has me take the bathroom rugs (no idea what they are really called) and put in the wash. Our bathroom happens to be right above where the washer and dryer are... make a long story short.... I got dripped on. Now that is normally gross being what it is but now I have to hope the chemo drugs were sufficiently diluted as well. Great.
Normally she would be in the kitchen right now... cooking up a storm getting ready for tomorrow. She may do some cooking tomorrow if she feels up to it. She may just sit and tell my daughter what to do.
Counting our blessings... it can certainly be worse.
Same to you!They are.now I have to hope the chemo drugs were sufficiently diluted as well
Hope you all have a great (or at least uneventful) turkey day.

ETA: It would be worth asking the nurses at the infusion center if you could have a few pairs of chemo-rated gloves to take home for a just in case scenario like this. They won’t care. We burn through hundreds/day.

I liked using the announcements to let peeps know what was going on. I felt it helped reduce the well meaning inquiries. After awhile, it becomes a chore to repeat the same stuff over and over. I feel like a bit a heal when I say that. The folks were asking out of true care and concern. It just becomes overwhelming. There was one pair of us and large of number of incoming requests/messages.
Good luck. This is a rough phase. Take it as it comes.
If you have someone you trust, you could designate them to do the updates. A clearing house for this stuff can make things much easier.Yea, it can be draining to discuss it. It is wierd... talking about it can be cathartic (like here) and then it also can be an emotional/mental vampire. No idea why the difference but it has been a striking realization to me.

A trip you say?Hey Chad just saw this on today. So thankful for the help and advice over the years. So sorry you are going thru this. If you ever need anything let me know.
I can always help you out figuring out how to max out credit card rewards for a trip to take. A really good one.
I apologize I have not read the entire thread. If that is not an option now it was an oversight. The offer stands now and forever.A trip you say?Hey Chad just saw this on today.

Trust me, it's weird from the this side, too. The person doing the mammogram is usually a woman, but it's weird having someone move a body part like that. Oddly, I don't even notice when my regular GP does it.After the Doctor got finished feeling my wife up (sorry, still weird to me watching a guy with his hands all over my wife's bare breasts even though I know it is not sexual and I completely am comfortable with the Doctor etc.... still is weird)
I have never seen a mammogram but the Doctors examination is fully hands on and feeling all over.... like a 14 year old with his first time touching bare boobs.After the Doctor got finished feeling my wife up (sorry, still weird to me watching a guy with his hands all over my wife's bare breasts even though I know it is not sexual and I completely am comfortable with the Doctor etc.... still is weird)

That's awesome news about the tumors, by the way!
She has rebounded pretty well today. More like previous treatments.Hope she feels better soon.
That's rough man. Just be there for her and support her.A lot of hair fell out today. One of the few times she has broken down and cried.
