Mine was exactly that. ‘This is the protocol’. No deviation. No consideration. Even when presented with a clear MRI half-way through chemotherapy.

Full dose given, despite my small weight/frame. (44kg. Minimum weight requirement was 46kg.)

Febrile neutropenia - my hospital notes state.

‘The most common cause of death from chemotherapy’ a Google search clarified.

And that was after dose No1.

Your cancer treatment plan should never be one-size-fits-all. Every person’s body, diagnosis, and life circumstances are unique so ‘protocols’ need to be personalized. Always ask questions, seek clarity, and work with your care team to make sure treatments align with your individual needs and goals.
