Are Cytoxin And Taxotere Effective For Breast Cancer?
I am having chemo treatments for breast cancer.. The cancer was stage I, triple negative, grade 3. There was none found in the margin or lymph nodes.. The doctor told me because it was aggressive and my age (50). The treatments were necessary.. I have already been through radiation.. It was a five day treatment twice a day. They put a cathetor right on the place where the tumor was removed... Will this help me and prolong my life? The drugs are cytoxin and taxotere. The also give me the shot the next day for my immune system..
Hello dear. I have gone through the details. However i have found that you received radiation just after surgery, which is against the protocol. Radiation has to be given after chemotherapy. Chemo drugs are good and will help to prolong the life. The shot which you received next day is a growth factor given to prevent your immune system from crashing and thus will prevent any infections. Hope you do well. Regards
