Your support and comments are all wonderful, and I think of how fortunate we are to have so many treatments available that change almost daily. So glad we have the ability to network with each other and ask for opinions and support.
Maybe this belongs on a different thread, but I'm not sure how to do that. I had my fourth infusion of TCH today. Last time my onc told me that only 4 treatments and a year of Herceptin would be enough for me. Today I had a different onc because mine is on vacation, the department head, who suggested the original 6 treatments because I'm getting through these so well and the standard is 6 treatments. Now I don't know what to do. The chemo is not fun, and I would be glad to be finished, but if 6 is better and improves my chances of this disease not returning later in life, should I go through the 6 treatments after all? The first onc said I was pretty low risk and thought 4 would be enough. Anyone have any thoughts? Thanks so much.
