Hi it’s Kaye just wondered if anyone had to have 2 week break in middle of chemo. I’ve had 6 weeks of carbo/Paclitaxel but have kidney problem and having two week off from weekly chemo for kidney operation and then back to it for 6 or 12 weeks. Onc says it’s not a problem but as I won’t be getting the chemo it won’t be killing cells so worried it’ll give cells opportunity to grow. But unavoidable. Has anyone had similar break and info on consequences?  I’ve had FEC and EC before 3 weekly for 6 cycles but never taken a break inbetween. 

  • Hi

    I can't help with your questions but I noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. By replying to you it will 'bump' your post back to the top of the discussions list.

    You might also like to post these questions in the main breast cancer group as it's a busier group than this one and you'll probably connect with people there who have had chemo breaks.

    Wishing you all the best
