Re: DCIS & Neoadjuvant treatment - moving discussion to a new thread

hey ' lizbeth,
I'm day 3 of 6th chemo cycle. Have no brain function just now!

Not sure who on this forum has best insight into therapies. I've mainly been learning about adjuvant for my own decisions and neo-adjuvant has so much new stuff. In a while I'll check out our Australian EVIQ site which has links to recommended protocols. Australian govt pretty tight with money for new drugs at the moment....new government has the knife out for most essential services unfortunately.
