I would like to hear other womens' experiences with these two treatments for breast cancer. Which of the many side-effects were most common. Just how debilitating was the time on chemo with either of these two regimens?

What advice does anyone else have for making this decision to add the chemo or not and which one?

-To get numerous replies to this question you might want to go to the ACOR breast cancer discussion group. It's an unmoderated e-mail listing of about 700 people from about 30 countries around the world who either have breast cancer or are family of a bc patient, or in a bc-related medical field. The list is open to researchers, physicians, patients, family, friends of patients and uses the forum for the discussion of any issue relating to breast cancer.

1998 (she got in on the lottery with the help of a doctor) and today, is 6 months into remission!
