So sad had to have two teeth out on Wednesday , now looks like chemo start date will be pushed back :-( So will be just over 7 weeks since op
Worried it will be too late to stop it coming back . Anyone else had this happen feeling really down .
Hi Chealseagirl, I'm afraid the worry never stops but you are wise to have the teeth out before chemo starts as the chemo will lower your immune system so any infection can be serious, chemo is a powerful tool so unlikely to be too late, my lump started shrinking after the first treatment so you have everything to hope for. Thinking of you, you are not alone, love from Ann
Hi Ann , thank you for your reply , really cheered me up , never thought I would be so disappointed not to be having chemo next week . Good luck with your treatment hope all goes well for you
