Hi, I’m about to start my second month of chemo, 3 weeks on and 1 week off, round 2 starts on Tuesday. I used the cold cap in weeks 1 and 2 then decided it wasn’t for me. Not much hair left now but I am getting my head around that.
Please can someone explain to me in plain and simple English, what exactly does treatable but not curable mean. Do I have cancer for life now? Will I be having treatment for the rest of my life? I need to understand please. Thank you x
Hope everything goes well I'm in the same situation my scan is on the 8th so stressed at the moment hope it's good news for both of us xx
