Hi @Sarnicad. I was exactly the same with my hormone therapy. Knew it was coming but asked few questions until it arrived!
Next time, ask your onc which medication they want to put you on, and why. Ask them if you have any side effects, what is their preferred way to be contacted about managing them. Ie, appointment or email.
It really is a lottery. As with all things BC, and life in general, try not to cross the bridges until you come to them. Predictive grief and worry is a no no.
I'll be crossing my fingers for you. In the meantime, concentrate on getting through radiation and then have a break for a while. K xox
