First AC Chemotherapy
hello lovelies, so I had my first session of AC treatment yesterday. what am I meant to feel? At this stage I was tired yesterday but not much more. Which day does it really kick in?
@KatherineH That may as bad as it gets! Really, my AC a few years ago was fine. The only problems I had were with things like veins later on in my treatment, I developed a DVT (no-one was sure what that was all about) and had bone pain from Neulasta which was administered when my white cells didn't behave. No nausea, tired for a couple of days and had to figure out how to play my bowels (which needed a tune up) Apart from that I worked right through, actually lost some weight by cleaning up my diet and learned I look 'hot' bald. Apparently.
Heave a sigh of relief, you are not out of the woods, but nothing nasty has grabbed you on the first few steps and there is a good chance you will be just fine. Marg
