I have triple negative breast cancer. I have just finished 12 weeks of chemo and immunotherapy, and today I started EC and immunotherapy. I'm having it every three weeks. The first lot of chemo and immunotherapy has made me so ill, I have no energy at all, and can't walk far so have to use a wheelchair now.
I had already got tickets with my son and daughter (19 and 21) for Taylor Swift for 23rd June at Wembley. I had my first lot of EC and immunotherapy today so am due again on 26th June.
Do I risk going? Will my white blood cells be recovered enough? I really want to go as I will never get the chance again and I still want to live my life. Cancer has already taken so much away from me. But I am also aware of the huge risks and implications. I will be wearing a mask and taking wipes and hand gel. What do you advise on your experience?
I had my first EC chemo last week and taking my little girl to Taylor tonight. I’m taking a mask and hand gel. Like you said, I still want to live my life and I want to make memories for my daughter too. If you’re feeling up to it, go!!
