@KylieG I had AC followed by TH. My oncologist sort of gave me the choice with AC but also said she recommended it. She said she was probably overtreating me, but I was happy with that decision at the time.
My treatment was done by a multidisciplinary team including her and my surgeon, radiation oncologist and a pathologist too, so I feel like that was a consensus decision. I also feel like its quite a common treatment for Her2 and Triple negative.
AC also has a small chance of causing a different type of cancer later on. She should warn you about that as well. And Herceptin can also cause cardiac issues too, so the AC and H together are an issue.
Good luck with your choice.
