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...

Just a reminder to check anything you're doing with your doctor. I was very keen on doing lots of juice and then my doctor told me that my chemotherapy worked by oxidising the cancer, so going nuts on anti-oxidants would actually undermine my treatment. Her advice was to eat a balanced diet with plenty of vegetables but not to do anything extreme while I was on chemo, and definitely not to take any supplements other than vitamin D until I was finished. Lucky I checked or I might have been doint something counter-productive.
Best wishes with your treatment. Here's a link to my blog with all my chemo advice if you want to take a look: positive3neg.wordpress.com
