Hi Ladies
Sorry yu have had to join us on this forum. I was diagnsd Mid May and have had my second FEC today.
When I first found out I was concerned that a lot of ladies treatments were different to mine, and my imagination went haywire. spoke to my Ong and he assured me that thre is no such thing as a 'set course of treatment’we must bear in mind everyones treatment is different, depending on location, size etc etc. It is all about getting to the next stage, monitor, tests and then move forward eg I have 3 x FEC then 3 X taxitere and my mastectomy Mid Nov. whereby some ladies have already had their ops and now on chemo. This forum is fab and really picks me up. remember stay positive eat healthy foods and drink plenty of water. there is another forum “Top tips to help get you through Chemotherapy” which was really useful
Luv and hugs to all of you
