    Hi Jitka, it is great to know you are feeling good. I too had minimal side effects from chemo, and I was having Taxotere and Cyclophosphamide. My worst day was day 4 and 5, but in the scheme of things not too bad. I called Sunday, after my Thursday chemo, my BLOB day. I just lay around and dozed. The next day my bones all ached, and because I wasn't expecting it, I didn't treat it properly. My oncologist told me to take panadol 4 hourly on this achy day, and when I did this the second time around it made an enormous difference. The panadol seems to stop the pain from getting a hold on, and then in a day or so, I wouldn't even need any panadol. It is always easier to prevent this, than to treat it once the ache sets in. Good luck with it all. Love Chris xx
