CMF is a chemo combination. It was a pre surgery treatment I was given. Then surgery. With TNBC there is often a pill that you are given after surgery that contains one of the same chemicals in CMF. Because they want you to have different chemicals than your initial chemo, the pill was the wrong treatment and we had to get advice as to what that alternate treatment should be. Ultimately we were advised on Taxol and Carboplatin. Sorry, I can’t recall the name of the pill. It is always hard to explain this. Hopefully nobody else has the same experience.
