Hi friends,
In your experiences, what should my mum expect next? She had a lumpectomy in January and just completed 6 rounds of chemo every 3 weeks. She is in her 3 week rest period before starting 15 days of radiation.
Then what?
How can can I be her advocate? What should I ask the dr’s? What needs to happen next?
Hiya,
So she will be cancer free and well protected! I had yearly meetings with the onc and yearly mammograms for up to five years. Will she be taking hormone tablets or herceptin? I also had zoladex injections to shut my ovaries down - but i am guessing your mum is post menopause?
Cwtches,
