July 2025 chemo starters

Hi everyone, another July chemo starter here. I was diagnosed in April after screening mammogram. Invasive Ductal Carcinoma, grade 2, Er+ PR+. HER2-, 1.5cm but had spread to lymph nodes. Underwent surgery in May with wide local excision and axillary lymph node clearance, 4/9 nodes affected. Chemo starts on the 22 July, x4 EC (3 weekly) then Paclitaxel x12 (weekly) followed by 3 weeks radiotherapy then hormonal treatment for 7yrs. Dreading the chemo starting. Going to try cold capping. Reading all the tips and comments on here is really helpful and knowing there is support available here is a comfort too. Good luck go everyone what ever treatment regime you are on. Hope it all goes as well as it can.
