Anyone just having epirubicin chemotherapy?

I had EC chemotherapy in October but my body didn’t cope well as I had chest infection, then Neutropenic Sepsis and was in hospital for 9 days. For 2nd cycle I have been given the Filgrastim injections and am just having epirubicin (without cyclophosphamide) and am coping much better. I’m having 6 cycles overall. I wondered if anyone else has had just E chemotherapy and how it worked out for you?

I think it’s less common to have EC chemo for secondaries as a lot of people have had it already for primaries. I had it as I was de novo and it was fantastic for me albeit that I found it intense. I suspect you might not get so many answers here though. I presume your oncologist thinks it’s a good plan though so hopefully it works for you as well as the EC did for me.
