Early breast cancer not responding to chemo

So I posted on before after being diagnosed with triple negative grade 3 breast cancer . It had been caught early but I was anxious about the chemo side effects. After two round of  epirubicin and cyclophosphamide I’m now freaking as my first scan has shown a slight growth. They are now changing my chemo because of this . Has anyone else had this happen? And what is the outlook with this situation ? 

 

  • I'm sorry your first scan has shown a slight growth since you started your chemo but try not to panic if you can. I know that is much easier said than done given what you've found out but hopefully the new chemo they're looking to start you on will be more effective.

    If you click here and here, you'll find two other discussions where members are chatting about this diagnosis and their journeys so far, so don't be afraid of joining in as I'm sure they will do all they can to help and support you at this time.

    Kind regards,
