Chemo knocks everyone different I had alot side effects had to buy numbing mouthwash diflam cream for ulcers kids toothpaste but all helped the bone aches suck all rhe best u got this lovley lady 

Thanks everyone for the info now I can hardly wait to see what happens next.
BTW little titty name, why lie it's the first time I was glad I didn't have much.

Love the name @littletitty . Yep, that sounds about right. Chemo is a diabolical thing because as soon as you feel good you feel terrible then you feel OK then you're good then you feel terrible. Rinse and repeat. Marg xxx

Is that AC? Yes...U was a bit yuck first night, pretty okay second and 3rd then down like a ton of bricks after that and flat for a week. Just ride the wave and keep up medications. The worse days was after stopping the dexamethasone as it helped nausea and energy. I needed it adjusted to 4 days cycle 2. Kath x

It seems any number of terrible side effects can be 'normal' during chemo. We are all a bit different. I had my TAC infusions on Thursdays. Fridays I felt fine, little tired on Saturdays, then Sundays BAM the 'Mac truck' rolled on over me. Each day was a little better after the Sunday until I felt reasonably normal after about 10 days.

Hi @"little titty" sorry to hear you're going through chemo.  I found AC chemo to be quite the "yuck" experience.  Yuck was the only word that could describe it.  I found it was important to keep up with the anti-nausea meds prescribed around the clock for at least the first week after chemo.  That helped the nausea lots.  I basically spent the week and a half after chemo resting as my body couldn't do much else.  Then came the good days, usually the week before you had to go and do it all again.  I also kept taking Coloxyl gentle laxitive as my digestive system just stopped while I was on chemo.  It helped keep my digestive system moving.  Drinks lots too, to keep hydrated.  Good luck with the next round and take it easy.

Hi!  yes it is a so and so and fatigue is a factor.  If possible try and give it into and rest as you will need strength for the treatment regime and pushing yourself doesn't help!

Take care

Thanks, looking forward to the ride.
I go back in a fortnight for my next treatment. Can hardly wait. 
It doesn't help when you have no support at home. But I will stay positive I have no choice.

Hi @little titty 
This was pretty much my experience also. Had my first TC treatment on a Friday, Sunday night it was like 'bam, just tricking, got you'! You will find that even people on the same drug regime may react differently. I also found that I reacted differently after each treatment (4 in all). Go figure : /. 
Welcome to the wild ride - hugs to you.
