Thanks for taking the time to reply Jan, I really appreciate it. When I was first diagnosed again, I was dead set against not having chemo. I managed to get through 3 cycles of FEC and then 3 cycles of T but like you, I had neutropenic sepsis and the anti sickness sickness drugs weren’t enough for me and I was hospitalised for IV anti sickness drugs. I found it really tough although I managed to work intermittently through about 2/3 rds of chemo. I had a chat with my breast care nurse today. I can’t believe I forgot to ask the grade at my last appointment and I found it is grade 3 when the biopsy was grade 2. I kind of feel that chemo will be recommended so I want to get my head around it a bit more and start to plan for it. BCN also said that weekly chemo would be more tolerable than the regime I had before although I do appreciate that everyone has side effects to different degrees. I understand also that GCSF is given as standard now when I only had it after I had neutropenic sepsis so that’s good. how are you doing now that you’ve finished your chemo?
