Hi all,
Am 6 weeks post mx with LD flap recon. Everything was going well and I was recovering from the surgery…then… The news that within the DCIS they found invasive cells. B******s!!!
Met the oncologist today and am starting my chemo in two time. 6 cycles of FEC for 4 and a half months. Gutted does not describe how I feel 
I also can’t get onto the fab site properly to join threads or reply to anything.
Any who, I hope all you other brave ladies are ok

Hi Hannah
It all sucks doesn’t it. I’ve had 2 surgerys (WLE then re-excision, and its still not quite gone). Met my oncologist yesterday and starting chemo on Wed next week. Terrifying thought isn’t it, but remember it will blast that cancer good and proper and its worth going through it all now and getting rid of it for good.
I’m doing 6 cycles of FEC-T, so like you roll on Nov and the end of the chemo…
Hang in there x
Hi Hannah
I am the other way round from you. Had 3 x FEC and 3 x tax (last one was on Monday). I am hopefully having mx and ld flap recon next Thursday. Would be interested to hear about our surgery and recovery.
I too didn’t think I would have to have chemo but traces were found in one lymph node so that changed things. I can honestly say its not been too bad. Make sure you get all the drugs you can and take them when you are suppowed to. I wasnt sick at all, felt slightly nauseous first day and took it easy 1st week but then definitely started to feel better. I had neulasta injection the day after chemo - would definitely recommend that if you can get it in your area.
