Hey community

I am recently diagnoised and looking for information on my upcoming treatment.

I was diagnosed in Aug 2020 as Stage1, ER+ and Her2+

I had a lumpectomy and IORT a week ago

I begin 12 weeks of Taxol only next week and 1 year of Herceptin

I would love to hear from anyone who underwent or is going thru the same treatment plan :)

Hello Clloyd2020,
I hope your treatment goes well next week and that you hear from others here who have had exactly the same treatment plan as you. You will find detailed information on Paclitaxel (Taxol) on this page and you can also find out more about Herceptin here. If you have any questions, our nurses are available on this free number 0808 800 4040 - their line is open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5pm.
As nothing replaces hearing from personal experiences, I hope that others who have been through or are currently under the very same treatment plan will be along soon to share their story with you.
Best wishes,
Lucie, Cancer Chat Moderator
