AC Taxol and everything

Hi Alsopt
Sorry you have had a hard time on the AC. I can relate- the same happened to me. I ended up in hospital; with zero white blood cells but I then had neulasta injections after each AC and that sorted it out. Re the Taxol, I found it so much easier. My hair started growing back and I had more energy so hopefully you will find it so much better. I have lost 6 kilos since diagnosis. I changed my diet, but also I found it hard to eat during chemo. I also had positive nodes so yes, I worried that my weight loss was related. We worry about everything don't we? With me though, I needed to drop some weight and now I am in a healthy range for my height. You have probably lost some muscle tone like you said especially if you were a regular gym goer. I hope the taxol goes well for you. It will go quickly!
take care
