You will do well D ??
Just remember to be kind to yourself and listen to your body and be gentle to your tummy as AC goes from the extremes of constupation in the initial days to runs later on quickly so make sure you have both something like movicol (when constupated) and gastrostop (if the runs hit) and vary your diet accordingly.
I am just on the 1st round of it (day 14) and I did bugger things up by not acting appropriately when loose stools hit so now suffering the consequences and hoping things heal this week before I go for round 2.
And in the initial 3 days do try to have someone supervise your taking the meds (if at all possoble) as brain is a bit cloudy on those days regardless of how hard you think and concentrate. I thought it was just me almost overdosing by taking tablets at the wrong time (thinking it was something else) then almost taking it again at the correct time. Sheer luck stopped me. But then another lady on this group told me did in fact O.D. the other day as similarly to myself she took once daily tablet in error twice thinking it was the nausea tablet so definitely not just me...
And there is a lot of info on our experiences on AC as everyone handles it and reacts to it a little bit differently - you can search / filter the posts by using 'AC' as a keyword
All the best
