Hello:)I had cyclophosphamide and docetaxel.It wasn't that bad for me,but there were things that I did that certainly helped.I had my head shaved a few days before I started,and on day 14 of the first round,it ALL started to fall .my eyebrows went first.Every round,the tiredness started on about day 5, and continued till day 10. I walked EVERY day,and it REALLY helps.My oncologist is very big on daily walking.The second round,I had very terrible skin rashes,and the itching was something like I have never experienced.Get some Zyrtec now,as it was the only thing that helped me.My food cravings were bizarre,but that's no big deal I reckon.All the best,and come on here and ask questions if you get stuck with anything.Cheers Robyn.xox
