TCH or FEC?
We have our first oncologist consultation tomorrow so I've been studying what I can tonight, based on my wife's diagnosis I'm assuming her oncologist will recommend either TCH or FEC (plus herceptin), but I haven't been able to find anything that would indicate why one or the other. Any assistance is appreciated.
Thank you.
