@Jazz26 I agree, I'd get on the phone and find out what's happening, it shouldnt have taken that long for your Oncologist appointment especially as you already have your results/pathology. It is hard trying to get ahead of everything especially if you have alot coming up. I had 4.5 months of chemo 4 FEC every 4 weeks and 8 weekly Taxol. There are alot of women who work through no problems, I managed for about a month and was forced to stop completely due to being too ill and was off work about 3 months in the end. Ummm no I couldnt afford to not work as was a single parent, luckily I had income protection that helped a little. I made heaps of plans to manage it and how I was going to work but unfortunately I was drug sensitive and my body just didnt cope. So just remember you may not need it, and if you do, everyone is different and you can't possibly gauge how you will be, its more a wait and see in terms of your plans. My diagnosis was Grade 2 Stage 3 IDC ER+, so lots of factors in determining chemo or not. Hang tight. Hugs Melinda xo
