Hi everyone 

im having my 5th cycle of chemo next week but being given paxitaxel so not sure what to expect, I’ve had 4 cycles of doxorubicin and coped ok with that, I’ve been very lucky that I’ve not had any nausea or loss of appetite, I have had hair loss and black marks on my nails!  
after my final treatment I’ll be having surgery but not sure yet whether it will be a full breast removal or not, has anyone else had surgery after chemo?

  • Hi, I had different chemo to you, but did have surgery afterwards. Luckily for me the chemo had significantly reduced the lump, so I had a lumpectomy instead of mastectomy.   Good luck with the new chemo
