[ExpectAMiracle]

I have been reading lots of posts and posted a few things myself. I'm still a relative newbie to BC, having been diagnosed on 2/8/07. My stats are in my signature. I saw my oncologist for the first time yesterday. I really liked her and feel comfortable with her. I'll be starting TCH on 4/9. Initially she talked about using AC with Herceptin followup, but after some discussions (I was an informed consumer thanks to this board!), she decided that TCH would be best. I have high B/P and am diabetic (well controlled with meds) so she said the TCH rather than AC-H would have less heart risk.

Right now, I am scheduled for 4 TCH treatments, 1 every 3 weeks for 12 weeks. Is that common? I have noticed that many women are getting 6. Is that related to statistics? I would welcome any advice, insights or etc. on TCH therapy.

This board has been so helpful and given me a lot of strength on this journey. The women here are an inspiration. I'm determined to be the VICTOR not the VICTIM in this situation - by the grace of God.

Blessings to all of you!
