Hi everyone,
I had the results back from my interim PET scan yesterday and my consultant told me that I’m not where they would expect me to be at this stage. I’m devastated to be honest. I’d like expected a really good scan as my symptoms had reduced signicantly and the mass on my chest had disappeared.
Before starting treatment I had to decide between ABVD to escBeacopDac but decided to go ahead with ABVD due to the amount of treatment days and the distance I would have to travel (a difference of 40mins+ travel time).
I always knew there was a possibility I may have to move onto beacop but it’s hit hard. I felt I was only just coping with ABVD and juggling that with looking after our 14 month old daughter. I’m just not sure how I’m going to cope with so many more treatment days and so much travelling.
Does anyone have experience of moving from one to the other? Are the side effects worse?
any input would be really appreciated!
