Yeah. It's a very common treatment for those who need chemo but don't have lymph node involvement. I went through it. Did fine although it certainly wasn't easy. Made a full recovery though.

I also went through TC chemo. I agree…wasn't the easiest thing, but you'll get through it. Do what your Doc says and call them if you need to. I'm also in recovery. Feeling better every day. You got this!

Hi there. I'm sorry to hear about your diagnosis. I had the same thing and my treatment was the same. I won't lie, chemo is rough. My advice don't be hard on yourself. However you handle it, it is the right way. People will try and tell you how you should feel. You will have some good days and bad. My biggest issue with the chemo was the fatigue. Give yourself opportunities to rest, schedule some pamper time and let people help you.
