4th day after FEC looming are Meds necessary?

Hi there.  I have just finished the fec cycles.  the 4th/5th days are awful but bearable.  I am still taking the pramin 3 weeks later as a precautionary measure.  I wake up each morning and sometimes in the night nauseas and feeling like upchucking.  the pramin keeps it in check.  I also have some stemetil if it doesnt work.  have only had to take a couple of times.  I wasnt taking it after the first 4 days initially but the nausea persisted and my chemo nurse told me just to keep it up.  I am onto Taxotare for the next 3 cycles.  starts this week.  bit scary as I have been told that it was worse than FEC.  Lets face it the whole business is a different world to most of us.  My daughter gave me a card which reads "if you are going through hell, keep going" which helps me to just keep  pushing through.   As for working, I thought I would be ok in the last week of each cycle but have been bitterly disappointed to realise I didnt get better each time.  I cant work and I have resigned myself to it now and some days I can barely sweep the floor I am so weak.  Sorry to moan.   Good luck.
