Suggest Treatment For Breast Cancer With Many Positive Nodes

Hi there! I am 44 and just recently had breast cancer. I had a double mastecomy in March. Already had 4 rounds of chemo (Taxotere and Cytoxin). I have a question about wether to do 4 or 6 rounds? I have seen 2 doctors and they said different things. I m very confused. One Dr. said doing 6 is no more beneficial than 4. Other said if I m doing good lets do 6. I had 2 out of 10 positive nodes and 2 Onco DX test scores of 5 and 14 (2 tumors, one breast, not attached).
