Re: Hospital stay & Hair Loss...makes for a full week:(

Hi Jessica

I'm sorry you ended up in A&E and hospital for five days.

This happened to me too after the first round of FEC. Neutrophils went down to 0.37 and I got febrile neutropenia.

It is very scary having to go to A&E but you did the right thing.

You are doing so well. 10.5 years and beyond is a huge achievement.

Please don't give up. This too shall pass. Brighter days are ahead. Spring is just round the corner.

With best wishes

Catkins
