1st Chemo
Hi Everyone,
Well I start my 6 rounds of chemo on Tuesday, 3 of FEC and 3 of Taxaotere, I'm hoping it will be nice to me. I've been reading your posts and making notes trying to be organised and re...
Hi Penny,
Just wishing you luck for Tuesday. Whatever happens we are all thinking of you. It is never easy embarking on chemo for the first time because of all the horror stories people tell you. You will be fine. Go with an open mind and face it head on! I had AC not FEC and I was quite scared when I had my first one. It's only natural and it will be over before you know it. You will be fine. Don't forget to post and let us know how you fared. Everyone is different but to share a common experience is often very comforting.
I'm now a 1/4 of the way through my second regime - Paclitaxol/herceptin and coping ok. A little tired but otherwise faring better that AC. I didn't realise how brutal AC was until I started this latest regime. 3 down 9 more to go! Then radiotherapy for 7 weeks!
Hang in there and I look forward to reading your updates.
Fingers and toes are crossed for you!
Love Alison xxx
