Forum Discussion
@SoldierCrab thank you for the information very helpful didn't realise ther where different grades. I will see what the oncologist says on Tuesday. It is a roller coaster. Glad you are cancer free after 5 years. Tank you againSoldierCrab said:I had to stop Paxitaxel after 6 treatments as I had grade 4 I am alive and cancer free 5 years later ..... when your oncologist makes the choice about continuing or ending taxol treatment they often give another treatment.
@Paulamarie one of the things we learn on this Roller Coaster Ride is that there are stops on it we dont plan for .....Below are a couple of links to help you find your way around the forum and also how to find a breast care nurse and how to order a MY journey Kit if you haven't got one yet.
It can be a a whirlwind when we first get a diagnosed.... Breathe and take it one step at a time.
