Hi Minnie

My diagnoses is very similar. 

Grade 3 IDC in left breast with Lymph node involvement diagnosed in July following biopsies..

6 rounds of Docetaxel and carbonation with 3 week cycles commenced August. Also immunotherapy jab for HER+  during session. 
I used the Paxman cold cap throughout and have retained most of my hair so far, it’s just thinner. I did cut it short before starting to ensure best fitt.

The cycles were tough, but the team did all they could to alleviate my symptoms by switching my meds up which really helped so don’t struggle alone. 
I

My last chemo was Monday this week and a lumpectomy is planned for the 20th.

i hope all is going well for you as I note your frugal post was 3 months ago.

Kind regards,

Gill
