Done and dusted!!!!!

Well! I’m done with chemo! Last paclitaxol done dusted!

Its a strange mix of relief and disbelief! Tears and happiness!

I hope never to sit down in one of those chairs again!

5 weeks break then onto Rx.

Continue herceptin until November. ❤️

So I have a cc and dry in hand and finally a grin on my face!

    Hey @RachelG

    Only a very “fine” pins and needles sensation when compared with the “rough” sensation of pins and needles when leg goes to sleep - if you follow me.

    Perhaps daily from about week 6 on. But lasting less than 30 seconds when it happens.

    good luck. All will be well.

    Brilliant news @Sunshine0206, did you get any pins or needles/tingling with treatment? I am 5/12 way through paclitaxol and so far all good. Enjoy being finished with chemo

    Woohoo! So happy for you!! I’m not far behind you- just 4 chemo to go and then a break before rads. Can’t wait to be finished. You enjoy that drink- you’ve earned it!
