Hi again, Fullofbeans.
I did receive Taxotere after my mastectomy, yes. I had FEC prior to my op to shrink the tumour. When I got a recurrence in my scar (plus a new primary in my other breast which disappeared) I was put on Herceptin and Capcitabine. My recurrence has now gone and my onc says he will stop the Capcitabine soon.
Whereabouts are you in the UK? I am in Derbyshire. Your treatment centre sounds awful. You should have a scan without delay, if only to ease your mind. I haven't had a scan, apart from chest X Ray which was clear, but was told that if I was worried about anything I would get scanned. My friend was having bone pain and asked for a scan which she was given within two weeks.
I feel so sad seeing you struggle like this against those in authority. Can you not change hospitals?
Please let me know how you get on.
love
Sue
