FEC

I had FEC for three cycles and my experience wasn't too bad. The first few days were good because of the anti-nausea drugs then I felt a bit off for the second week but no vomiting and the third week I felt fantastic. Funny that I felt fantastic and very energetic but actually had very low neutrophils so ended up having to have Nulasta shots for the rest of the treatment. The Nulasta had its own side-effects; aching bones as my body tried to generate more neutrophils but all in all, it wasn't a bad experience for me. Most of the side effects were minor and I even went on holidays for two weeks to the Gold Coast and did a couple of theme parks. I wish you all the best and hope that your experience is not awful. Just remember that it is killing all those cancer cells and will ultimately make you better. Best wishes xx
