I am so happy to have joined this forum - it is "funny" how one can feel connected with a group so quickly. Thank you for making me feel so welcome.
My AC rounds have been every two weeks (instead of 3 I am told) which is why I think my body didn't get to recover after each time.
I felt great after the first one and had assumed it would be the same each time (how naive!).
I too had terrible reflux after the second one (felt like I was in labour for 4 days - but no baby at the end), doctor gave me Pantoprazole and it has helped. And I have also changed my diet - no more processed food, starch and sugar (basically I eat meat, veggies, fruit, cheese, yogurt and nuts), and I think this has helped my stomach a lot.
I have my 4th and last AC on Tuesday, then 12 Paxol then radiotherapy for 6 weeks. I am a bit scared of the last AC round as I spent 4 days in bed this week and I wonder what this one is going to bring... But it will be the last one and I too was told the next ones will be easier!
My 2 little boys help put a smile on my face every day no matter how bad I feel, love is powerful!! :)
Have a great Sunday everyone,
