Hi all
i started chemo on Monday (doxetacel) and have noticed that my lump has changed shape. has anyone else noticed this after treatment. Hopefully it means it’s doing something!
Hi EmFandango. Yes, I have also experienced this after one dose of Docetaxel and Carboplatin. It felt softer and possibly very, very slightly smaller. Saw my Oncologist 11 days later and he thought it had changed a bit too. We were both tentative about it but thought there was something different. Just had my second round yesterday and am hoping for further changes -fingers crossed.
Good luck to you, hope it is changing and it works for you.x
