New Chemo Regimen

On my last visit, Dr. Leo explained there was a new study recently released that pertained to my treatment plan. The study showed it is more effective and easier on the patient to give AC together two weeks apart, then T for three treatments three weeks apart. So we agreed to change my treatment plan accordingly. I had AC only last time and it was a bit easier to bounce back. I have one more treatment of AC on Thursday, then I will get a break for three weeks before the T.

It will extend the treatment plan overall by about 6 weeks. I should be finished with chemo mid-September. Then, I'm celebrating with my scrapbook sisters on a weekend retreat!
