About Chemotherapy

My treatment would involve 2 rounds of chemotherapy, each being 3 weeks in length. Week 1 in hospital. Weeks 2&3 at home.

By the end of week 2 my immunity would be at its lowest, giving me another week to recover before the 2nd round begins.
There would be a 4-6 week interval between the end of chemo and surgery.

This would give me as long as possible to recover strength before the tumor can start rebuilding itself.

During the treatment, 2 chemicals would be administered, during week one of each round.
I am told that it’s a treatment that would only result in mild to moderate hair loss… hmmm.
