Hello
I've not been on here for a while as struggled with my dark thoughts after diagnosis. I'm her2 positive with a couple of lymph nodes involved. I've started neoadjuvant chemotherapy and my oncologist has prescribed 8 cycles???? I cant seemto find anyone having 8, usually 6 so its freaked me out again x
Hello
I hear what you’re saying about being freaked out by eight cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, as I felt the same at first; I am now halfway through. At the beginning of the chemo it was explained that for me, and one other woman in the introduction session, eight cycles every two weeks were the plan. The impression I got was that this was normal, even though the cycles used to be every three weeks. I think the term used was ‘accelerated’,
