First FEC chemo treatment 3 cycles

Happy Mother's Day to you all!  I have had a beautiful day and feel very spoilt and blessed.
I started my first round of chemo on Thursday, they started me on a low dose due to my autoimmune disease (dermatomyositis). My bone and chest scan came back  all clear except I have an enlarged gland in my neck. They are hoping that it maybe an inflammed gland due to mastectomy.  So I am off for another ultral sound and possible biopsy. Please pray for me on Tuesday!
I am on fluorouracil, epirubicin and cycolphopshamide for 3 cycles. Then I go on to Docetaxel for the same nature of cycle. I have had an injection of neulasta to control the white blood platelets the day after chemo. This again is due to my DM condition. I am so blessed that they are so attentive to the complexity of my condition..
I have been taking maxolon to treat nausea and so far so good. I have also taken dexmethsone for nausea, 3 days after chemo but can't take steroids with this. I am back on steroids (15mg) tomorrow.I do get the odd flare especially during the morning and evening since not taking the steroids. They are trying to taper me off the steroids. I am now down to 15 mg and then 10 mg next week. I will  meet with my rheumy this week. Hope the steroid taper is not going to do my head in!!!

Thank you all so much for your tips to make my first chemo cycle smooth, fingers crossed Wk 2 is not too gruesome as anticipated.. I am now bracing myself for the hair appointment to get the head shave done. Lucky it is going to Winter here, I get to wear cool Winter hats!! Have a great week everyone!
