My treatment
I am 49. I was diagnosed in July with Grade III, Stage III Invasive Ductal Carsinoma.
Hormne receptive, HER 2 negative.
I had double mastectomy in August, and am on chemo.
my regimenwill consist of 2 rounds.
1st round is 4 doses of doxyrubicon and cytoxine.......every 2-3 weeks
2nd round is taxotere - one dose a wee for 12 doses
This seems like a lot to me!! Then prob radiation, and hormone therapy for sure for years!
I did have 2/7 positive lymph nodes.
Just seems like ALOT after mastectomy!!
