Having a very good reaction to just one round of chemo. She said she doesnt feel the mass in my breast anymore. The excruciating pain that was in my legs and hips is completely gone. However Im stage four so its spread. I worry about every little ache and pain and test. I worry their will be some reason I have to stop chemo. Best i can do is stop worrying and give it to God.

What wonderful news about your positive response to treatment - it sounds like your body is responding well, which can be so encouraging during this challenging time. The worry and anxiety you're feeling about each symptom and test result is completely natural for anyone facing a stage four diagnosis, and finding ways to manage that stress, whether through faith, mindfulness, or other coping strategies, can be just as important as the medical treatment itself.
