Hello all, any Sept starters? I had a mastectomy on 18th July and I have an oncologist apt next week, with a view to starting chemo in Sept. I’ve had a very stubborn seroma drained 3 times. I’m still getting to grips with all the info… but I’ve been trying to learn as much as I can so that I can reassure people when I tell them. Does anyone else feel like that? 
Hi. I’ve just got my date today - start 5th September 3xEC & 3x docetaxel. Had a lumpectomy on 6th June with 1 of 6 lymph nodes with cancer. Just keen to get going now as it feels such a long time ago since my operation. Any helpful tips of what to take in my chemo bag. Good luck with your treatment xx
Hi, I had lumpectomy in July and went to oncology appointment today - he told me it will be EC chemo but they can’t proceed because my neutrophil count is too low 
I was absolutely petrified of chemo but now feel petrified that I can’t have it……
So hopefully I’ll be having it in September but who knows!
Hello, gosh yes I’m keen to get going now too, waiting is definitely hard but hopefully you feel better having a plan. Not sure about what to take other than very warm clothes and maybe gloves because I’ll be giving the cold cap a go x
Awww I’m sorry to hear this! Can they give you anything to increase your levels?
Not sure! Have CT scan to go to and then back in 2-3 weeks to see oncologist and he said in the meantime he’ll speak with haematology! I’ve spent the last few hours researching what to eat to try and improve it!
I’m undecided about cold cap so if I’m a little behind you I’ll keep checking so please update as to how you get on!
Lots of love
