Got my treatment plan today...

 

Been back to the hospital today to discuss the treatment plan...

I will be starting chemotherapy on the 15th Sep and having it every 3 weeks for a total of 8 cycles, AC x 4 and Taxol x 4.

Then radiotherapy 5 days a week for 6 weeks. Then will be on hormone therapy tablets for 5 years after that....

The chemo and radio will take me till the end of march next year finishing a couple of days before my birthday....Yay, that will be my birthday present the treatment all finished...

    Here's a hint Kellie, when you go to have radiotherapy - dont wear your good bras (even for the plan) they get stained from all the texta and crap they draw all over you - so save your 'pretty' stuff! Cheers Josie
