New treatment

Hey - I don't have any experience, but there's a search functionality on this site and you can search all forums for a word, and here are the results for epirubicin ->

Hi @Keepfit. I had 4 cycles of the chemo combination EC (epirubicin plus cyclophosphamide) last year. It’s usually given either in this combination, or with flouracil also added (FEC). It’s bright red in colour and is hand pushed, along with saline, into your vein, rather than delivered through a drip. You can find my experience of it on my blog community.macmillan.org.uk/.../a-trip-with-triple-negative-breast-cancer

Thank you for that info. 

Thank you . Just read your notes. I’m starting it after a heart scan tomorrow. I’ve been on everything else over the last 5 years so hopefully this will keep me going for a while longer . 

I hope so. Heart damage was the biggest worry I had going into it and I came out unscathed. 

Thank you .
