Hello, Everyone; I feel so ackward posting on this thread, but I offically "belong" to this community.
My right foot was swollen and tender so I went to my primary care and was told it's nothing to worry about. After 4 months of not being treated and not getting anywhere, I was deperate and went to a podiatrist. He immediately sent me for a xray, then a nuclear bone scan, then a white blood cell skin tag or scan and was told I actually have cancerous bone cells in my foot and I am going to start a biphosponate chemo infusion called Aredia on Monday the 23rd. I have had family members on chemo, but not this type. I have scoured the websites on what to expect and it is scary.
I don't have a lot of family/close friends to help me through this, but I do have my son I adopted and is 4 years old. I have had him since he was a newborn.
I appreciate any encouragement and if anyone has any experiece with Aredia, I would love to hear it-good or bad. Thanks, Heavenleahangel
