Hello everyone, I have just started weekly TCHP for triple positive breast cancer. I am trying hard to just take a week at a time but sometimes can’t help but see the long road ahead. My treatment plan is 12-18 weeks of TCHP, lumpectomy, radiotherapy and, depending on response, either Phesgo for a year (from start of treatment) or Kadcyla for 42 weeks from end of TCHP. That’s 12-15 months of treatment. If anyone on here has any experience of this, can you advise how you found recovery from surgery and the radiotherapy in comparison to the chemo. Also I’d be interested to know whether the 3 weekly Phesgo or Kadcyla is slightly easier to cope with than the TCHP? I am hoping things might get slightly easier and that the worst comes first. Having said that please be honest so I can manage my expectations. I am a very positive person but feeling very overwhelmed by the big picture at the moment. It would be helpful to understand what I might expect. Thank you.
