Hey, all! Dx w IBC St 3 in February. Finished chemo AC 8 cycles in June, rad mod mastectomy of right breast 7 weeks ago, pathology says cancer free! Amazing miracle! Told my doctor we should do a paper. Anyway, waiting to start radiation any time now. Then, I have to have heart valve replaced after that, meanwhile, had a gallbladder attack 2 weeks ago, ER, hospital for a week, thank goodness it resolved without surgery. Oh, my, it's been a lot! But feeling good now. Can't wait for this to be over and get back to work. Noticed the peach fuzz yesterday 🤔, always something. But I am a God girl, and all is well. Staying peaceful and positive.

    Thanks for posting this positive nonte. Was the heart valve damage attributed to AC? I'm diagnosed IBC-possible....it's in the skin, but I don't meet all of the criteria) stage III, 0 LN and just started neoadjuvant chemo on AC-T. Nausea after AC #1 was pretty bad for me. So glad to read your optimism!

    I was apparently born with the valve issue, diagnosed in my 30s, just been slowly progressing. I do believe the AC had an effect, drs not so much. 🤔I do. Anyway, just one more thing. Hope you're go I g to do well.
