It's Tammy!'s video: Vlog 20 - The Chemo is Working

Vlog - The Chemo is Working! Hey guys, It's Tammy! Welcome to my crazy channel! Glad you decided to join me on my Crazy Cancer Journey! In today's video, I end up heading to my mom's for a while! The pain was getting beyond what I could handle and I needed to stay with my mother and nieces for a nit while I tried to recoup! On May 16 th, Mom and I headed to the Cross Cancer for my appointment with my oncologist. The good news is that the oral chemotherapy is actually working! I have been fighting cancer for three years now and this is the first treatment that has actually been killing the cancer! I am extremely happy! The bad news is that it is causing my Lupus to flare! I have had SLE Lupus since I was a child. I actually have severe Lupus and have had many Lupus attacks in the past. But for the past couple of years, my Lupus activity has actually been manageable and I haven't had much Lupus activity. The new oral chemo medication I am taking called methotrexate has caused me to gio into a Lupus attack/flare. Thus, the severe pain in my joints and abdomen. I have no choice but to ride it out (under close medical monitoring) until th activity dies down. Yes, the chemo is working! I know and accept that Mycosis does not have a cure. The chemo will eventually stop working and the cancer will come back. But, my oncologist has said we will rotate the two chemotherapy drugs, if needed. I may have many more years left! I certainly know I am not going to go without a fight! Hope is important when you are fighting anything in your life! Hope gives us the courage to keep fighting and it gives us a reason to want to fight! I am trying to reach 1000 subscribers, so please, if you haven't subscribed, please subscribe! I just want to thank everyone for all their support! It means so much to me! Thank you! So I hope that you enjoy the video!
