Chemo following mastectomy

I finished chemo seven weeks ago. I also had 3x FEC and 3x Docetaxel. Everyone has different side effects with chemo but for me I was over the worst of the FEC by about day 5. I would have been fine to go out on day 6. However, you will have to be careful because of your immune system. This is usually at its lowest from around day 7 to 14. As a general pattern with FEC I used to give myself 5 to 7 days to get over the nausea and tiredness, then limit my exposure to crowds etc for the second week and then enjoy normal life the third week before it all started again. Docetaxel was different and I never felt really good at all while undergoing this chemo. But everyone is different and you may have a better time than I had. Seven weeks after having that last dose I feel great. I am able to do normal activities, exercise etc. I have had to have radiation as my cancer had spread to the lymph nodes. I am almost finished this and am looking forward to being over the speed bump soon! Hope this info is helpful. I wish you all the best for your chemo and hope that you are able to attend the events with your kids. Look after yourself. Deanne xxxx
