Just done No. 7 on Paclitaxol with another 5 to go. Prior to this 3 weekly AC x 4 hits. Im super jealous of most of you as ive not had a good run. Chemo started first week in January for me and to be honest this past week ive really felt like for the first time in my life I've felt broken. Before BC i was a tough cookie working shift work, on my feet all day and busy. Now i cant even sweep the floor. Oncologist said unfortunately im among the few that chemo just knocks about a little too much. Seriously considering cutting treatment short after No.8 as its really doing my head in. Sorry im not posting to be negative, but i know over past couple of months ive strugged with others telling me they know someone doing same treatment and their fine and then look at me like im just lazy. Dont forget chemo effects everyone differently and be kind to yourself no matter how you feel x
