Hi Sharnie
I'm doing a different regime - they are many it seems and everyone seems to have different reactions. I am doing Fec100 x 3 and then the Docetaxal (taxotere) +Herceptin x 3 then continuing Herceptin for 12 months. I start on Wednesday 30th - no radio for me. I was node positive (2/14, Her 2+ve Grade 3 - largest tumor 2.2cm and I'm 38) but I had an axilla clearance. I have no idea really what I am in for - I a struggling with the looks of pity because I don't feel sick but I guess I may feel a little different next week - I keep telling myself it is an insurance policy and all about staying well long term. Some of the other ladies on here had some good ways of thinking about it - gold running through your veins and full of little pac mans eating up the nasties! I kind of like those :-) I wish you the best for your treatment.
