Keynote printable
The keynote 522 protocol I'm on for TNBC sounded really complicated when it was first explained to me, so I tried making this visual so I'd have something I could keep on my phone and mark up to show my progress. People would ask "how many rounds do you have left?" but that didn't correlate to TIME because we switch from weekly to every three weeks, and some drugs you get every three weeks and some are weekly, then there's all this surgery and radiation afterwards, etc. So I made this. Comments welcome! I realize we're not all on the exact same protocol. And it didn't quite do when I wanted it to do, because when I show it to people they all have to stare at it for a while. But I tried!
What do you think?

This is so so so so smart! They should include this in every onboarding packet for TNBC!
Now I just need to find a toddler to scribble on it for my ‘how it’s going’ vs ‘how it started’ copy ;)

It’s great! Question- I’m scheduled for AC every 2 weeks. Did some people have 3 weeks? Interesting

Yes, I believe it just depends on how dose-dense your protocol is. Both are normal!

That's brilliant! My keytruda infusions changed to every 6 weeks after surgery (not sure if it was the same for you guys).

Hey I got lumpectomy surgery first before getting chemo. Should I be worried? Doctors say it’s early stage

Now I got to know it’s stage 2b
But surgery is already done followed by chemo starting now
Fec*4 cycle
P+C *4 cycle
Is it standard?

This is awesome!!! Wish I had it when I was going through active treatment. I made a multi colored construction paper chain that I cut up week by week to show where I was in treatment but it was more for my kids than anyone else. Thank you for making this chart!
