Hi :) It really is frightening in those early days.I remember going to a chemo information session at the hospital,and afterwards rushing out to buy a REALLY expensive thermometer,so I would be able to tell if my temp started to rise!! I had 4 rounds of docetaxel chemo and my temp NEVER went above normal!!!The mouth ulcers hardly happened for me,but I made sure I used Biotene mouthwash and toothpaste ' obsessively' throughout each day!! Everyone reacts differently,and I am sure that you will find that things will not be as bad as you are expecting them to be.Stay in touch on here,as it really helps with general support .Cheers xoxRobyn
