Hello. Mine all went fine - chemo was manageable - I was on docetaxel and carboplatin but my consultant took me off the carbo after three rounds as my body wasn’t recovering quickly enough. I felt so much better after I was on just docetaxel! The three week cycle worked for me from a family life perspective, as after the first few days I felt fine to do school runs and so on (which I wanted to do). I was quite relieved when it was over, though! It was quite a mental exercise in convincing myself each round to me one closer to the end. Then mastectomy, which was fine and no pain after. And radiotherapy next week for five days. Then done! Oh and importantly, I should let you know mine was a large and aggressive tumour, but the chemo worked and got rid of the invasive tumour in breast and lymph nodes. Sorry - important fact! So I hope your treatment goes well. The chemo (if you’re having that) is a bit of a slog but it does pass- and it’s worth it. 🙂
