@Viking1 Why do you take Steroids for 7 days? My Team only prescribed for 2, 3 days at a max no more. Something I found worked the best in everything was Ativan, it helped relax me and I slept relatively ok. Worth asking your Team about. I was excruciatingly ill through Chemo, hospitalized for the first few days after my FEC infusions, then it took me a total of 10 days to be functioning or walking. I couldnt take painkillers as am drug sensitive so it was a long haul especially when I hit Taxol where I suffered non stop 8 weeks of bone, muscle and nerve pain. xx M
