Post lumpectomy two week visit with surgeon to discuss chemo, rad and hormone treatment
Hi, I am not sure if I should go in with a pile of questions or just sit and listen and then go home and do some research? Was there anything in particular people thought was an important question to ...
Your diagnosis is much tbe same as mine. It is the ER + that requires the hormone treatment wjich you start after chemo. The common treatment is gor ACT-H regime. AC first for 4 rounds then taxol for 12 weekly and herceptin. Every 3 weeks for 12 months. The hercepton blocks the her2 part. Just remember grade 3 responds really well to chemo. But they weigh ip you as an individual before determining the exact regime. Just listen, ask why the chemo that is vhosen has been chosen etc. You will have many more appointments to ask further questions later. Kath x
