CHEMO
Hi, so its 5 weeks since my diagnosis and i have had 3 operations and now preparing for chemo to start on Thursday. Starting to get nervous. Having 4 ac rounds, one every 2 weeks and then 12 weekly ...
HI Michelle,
I've just finished my 4 ac and 12 taxols (last dose last Thursday), I've done pretty well through the run, no hospital runs, no major reactions, yes aches and pains, and the sickly dizzy feeling with the ac wasn't nice, but be kind to yourself, rest, eat good snacks frequently if you're feeling a bit sick, you will make it through, one dose at a time.
At the tail end now I can't believe it's been 6 months of treatments so far, with such great nurses in the oncology centre and lots of friends willing to give me laughter and great care when I really wasn't feeling my best.
Stay strong and when you feel battle weary just take the day as it comes and enjoy the small things in life.
Best wishes and good luck, I hope you have a smooth run, sending you hugs,
Leonie
