Hi Matt,
You are at the same stage of treatment as several of our unfortunate crew so they will be able to give you some real time reassurance about the common problems that plague us during chemo.
The manky foot thing does not sound good--it's normal to get horrible toenails if you are having TC chemo but I'm a bit concerned about the purple toes. Best wave them in front of your oncologist before your treatment this week and get their opinion.
We have a couple of men who use the site from time to time, @traveltext might be around to give you some info that may help you feel a bit more connected. Thing is, breast cancer sucks regardless of who you are, where you live or what your general circumstances are. Feeling like part of a minority doesn't help, but I think you can rest assured that all the stuff that frightens and worries you has frightened and worried most of us. We are all in it together despite our different genders and backgrounds. Marg
