Started my Chemo

Hi everyone

As to my last discussion i have opted to doing the 6 mths like they want me to instead of the 3. I am on AC-T so now i am on my 5th day now and have been good. Havent had any down days although getting tired alot. Im looking after myself so im hoping i can continue without to many side affects.

    Great to hear. I am due for my last chemo tomorrow (I was on the AC-T protocol as well, with a total of six months treatment). In summary for me, the whole treatment was not nearly as bad as I expected.  I hope yours is the same.

    That's great that you're doing well.  The tiredness is to be expected but, given that you've hit the 5 day mark, you should be fine, I think.

    Another step closer to finishing.  
    Here's hoping you stay well. Jest remember to write down any side effects that you do have, so you can let your team know, and work out ways to deal with them
