I went back up to the 10 mg of Abilify. I couldn't take the anxiety increasing with the decreased dose. Maybe I'll taper off another time, when I'm not under so much stress.

Har har.
Did some Google research and it turns out the recurrence rate for my type of cancer is more like 6.8%-8% according to sources like NCBI. The PA today said it was only 3%. I've just got a bad feeling about this.

I'm not sure how I'm going to get through the next week without blowing my diet big time. I only did okay today because I have minimal sweets in my house but I've got to go to the grocery tomorrow.

Thanks to those who have offered support. It helps me to know I'm not alone.
