Chemo looming
Anybody out there?
I will be starting chemo on 5th feb and just like to chat to anybody about their experience. Will be on 3 FEC and 3 docetaxel on 3 weekly cycles.
Terrified of needles so visite...

I had the Neulasta injections for the last 2 Docetaxel chemos after having neutropenia with the first dose. I was able to give them to myself but I'm sure you will be able to get it sorted at the doctors. I was not sure if I really had any side effects as it did not seem much different to the effects from the Docetaxel anyway.
I did not try the cool caps but I did wear ice gloves when I had the Docetaxel to help minimize the effects on nails. Seemed to work well.
Don't worry about asking lots of questions, we all asked them of those who had gone before us too! We can all help each other on here. Deanne xxx
