    Hi I was diagnosed with grade 3 IDC breast cancer in November 2021 I have since had a lumpectomy and have started Chemo. My treatment plan is 4 Ec and then 4 pacitoxel followed by radiotherapy and 5-10 year hotmone treatment. I have had 2 Ec and having my third next week and the side effects haven't been too bad at all I know everybody reacts differently to treatment but it is doable. Good luck with your treatment and feel free to ask me any questions about EC xx
