Feeling dreadful
had my first TAC chemo 3 days ago. I feel terrible, like I've been run over by a bus. This was only the first session, 122 days to go! My God, this is awful, way worse than I thought. Can I do it...

Hi Oldduck
I am just coming up to my second tac. The first one was pretty horrendous. I have read a few times that the second one is often not as bad. But on a good note. Just remember things that have helped this time so at least you don't have to figure it all out again. i.e. I had a horrendous itchy rash after 4 days around my neck, and unfortunatley it happend right at the beginning of the weekend. I had it for 4 days all up - just horrendous - until I finally got a script from onco that worked. so at least if it happens this time I already have the cream - do you get what I mean. So that was awful but I wont have to face that again because i already have the cream to combat that at least.
You can do it. From somewhere does come an inner strength that just gets you from one day to the next - one foot in front of the other step by step. xo
