Just wondering what the difference between chemo's? I'm on FEC T and was wondering what it's strong points are compared to Paxitaxel or AC or just FEC... Just wondering what makes my personal Triple Negative case suitable for FEC T ??
I'm 42 yrs and my mother had Her2- er - Pr + ductal carcinoma BC 11 years ago (still all clear ) I had a lumpectomy to remove what was originally supposed to be a 2cm lump but was told post op they'd taken 3cm tissue??? ... No nodes involved but 3 removed and Triple Negative diagnosis- Chemo was decided after biopsy results & before the lumpectomy.
Sorry if this is a dumb question but was curious as to how they decide what to give you?
