DMX & Recon
Hello ladies, I'm in dire need of advice from the community regarding dmx and recon. I'm currently on a trial treatment prior to lumpectomy in mid December. I have triple negative and also a BRCA...
I’m just putting it out there. Not everyone has a hard time with Chemo, it is very individual and very unpredictable. I was lucky. My side effects were all manageable. And Radiotherapy was not hard either. I had 5 weeks/25 sessions. No burning etc. They used Mepitel, a dressing worn 24/7. Tell you more later, if there is a change to your plans. Our BC is different with the order and type of treatment. I am happy with what I had. My surgeon wanted my cancer removed and Chemo started as soon as recovered from Mastectomy. In my case it did take some patience before Recon. As I said. I’m still happy with all of my treatments. I have been very fortunate that I have had great Drs all the way through. They have all given me great explanations and time to ask questions. My surgeries have also gone well. No complications. I hope you are just as lucky with everything.
