Asthma Attack.

I have been diagnosed with Asthma since I was 21 and I never experienced a severe attack until after I was diagnosed with bone Cancer. The house I live in is very big and cold and takes a lot to heat up the house. I had been to the doctors a few days before the attack about my chest turns out I had a chest infection and the doctor asked me if I had a home nebulizer I said no that I didn't have one and he wrote me a note to the hospital for me to get one. Next day we went to the hospital to pick up the nebulizer. It was freezing one night and my chest didn't feel to good and I went to the bathroom and started wheezing like mad I could not catch my breath, I struggled to my room where the nebulizer was and could not talk to tell anyone to set the nebulizer up for me. I pointed instead and Kevin knew what to do. I was never so scared in my life I could feel something strange happening in my head as I was struggling to breath as soon as the nebulizer was given i was ok felt much better been able to breath again. To this day I dread to think what would have happened if I'd not have gotten that new nebulizer.

Treatment Plan.

Kevin and I went to see my oncologist to discuss my new treatment plan. I also have secondary breast cancer back again in the left breast. I'm back on the Herceptin again after four years. little did I know that you could have Herceptin in the form of an injection which takes about five minutes to have rather then having the Herceptin through a drip. I have to have the Herceptin injection once every three weeks. I also learned that I could take my Chemotherapy in tablet form instead of a drip.I take 4 Chemotherapy tablets for two weeks on and then the third week off. I take bone strengthener injection form into my stomach once every six weeks. Treatment is so different in my new hospital takes a bit of getting used to. it's so much quicker means you don't have to hang around the hospital for hours on end.
