Keep an open mind and don't be afraid of chemo, everybody is different. I had FEC then Docitaxol and handled them better than I had imagined. My medical oncologist gave me maintenance drugs to control any side effects and I never experienced any nausea or vomiting. I did feel very tired especially after the Docitaxol so just be kind to yourself and listen to your body. I think a positive attitude helps as well.
Do you have the option of using the cold cap? I used it and even though my hair did thin I didn't lose too much. The eyebrows and eyelashes went though but are starting to grow again hopefully better than they were before! Well I can hope at least!
Good luck and best wishes. Vicki
