Hey JodieThursday is a special day for a number of us from what I have read. Kerry says exactly what I feel. We are all unique and deal with things differently. If you have read the blog " what has helped you through your journey" that gives amazing advice of what you need for side effects. I had 3 FEC and 3 taxotere and I am sure my symptoms will be totally different to yours or you will deal with them differently to me. Again if you want to PM me I can tell you some of the details but there is no need assuming you will have the same. I agree totally with Kerry that the fear of the unknown is the worst part. If it helps, just remember alot of us pink sisters on this website have been where you are today and sure enough and no lies it is tuff but it is doable. The main thing is to look after yourself, take your temp daily regularly, eat as best as you can, drink water and all the other wonderful advice you will be given. You are number one through this whole journey so nurture yourself. Sounds like you have an absolute wonderful chemo nurse so that is excellent.Lots of love and sending you warm wishes your way, Mich xoxoxo
