Hi Emloudell, 

Best of luck for your 4th cycle of chemotherapy. I hope that it all goes well - an important milestone! I am sorry to hear that the very low platelets have resulted in you having to miss a few treatments. It's normal that it has made you really anxious to miss those treatments and don't hesitate to talk to your specialist about these fears. 

It's also completely understandable that you are feeling nervous as you are moving to EC treatment next week for 4 cycles - it's normal to worry about how it might affect your body and blood levels. Make sure you talk about all these fears and anxieties with your medical team as they will I am sure be happy to answer your questions and hopefully give you reassurance. Our cancer nurses are also available on this free number 0808 800 4040 if you want to talk things through - their helpline is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm. 

I hope that you will hear from other members who have been through something similar and that they will be along shortly to share their story with you. 

Wishing you the best of luck for the rest of your treatment! I hope that it all goes well and that it is very effective. Keep us updated on how it all goes if you get a chance.
