Hi all, hope everyone is doing as ok as they can be.
Ok, so, I had my first round of chemo (Epirubicin, Cyclophosamide) for breast cancer on 31.3.25 it knocked me for six, no surprise it's lovingly nicknamed the Devil.
Since then I haven't been able to have anymore due to one ailment or another. My picc line began to bleed from site, I have a clavicle clot, so the line was removed, no treatment that day. It was rescheduled again but I ended up with pneumonia and pleurisy. Having been put on blood thinners for the clot I already have, I am then told that should sort out the pulmonary embolism and the atrial fibrillation! Which I was unaware of.
My dose of chemo was to be reduced anyway, and I don't mind saying that I'm more than scared about having another lot, but of course, I will have it
I understand everyone is different, but what I'm asking I guess is, has anyone else had the same\similar experience? I truly hope nobody has and I've just been unlucky, but I want this over, I should have been well into my second dose now
What about supplements to boost my immune system, yes or no?
Hi Hereford it sounds like you're having a rough time, sorry to hear this. In terms of the supplements, it¡s always good to ask your BCN or oncologist as some can react with the treatment. Best wishes that the next round goes to plan
