I had my first chemo (FEC) on Monday and was really scared, but the oncology nurses and my husband were fantastic! I took the calm-you-down pill and it helped a lot. I also stayed in overnight for extra hydration. Came home Tuesday feeling 'hungover' which has eased now, I just feel tired. So far it's not as hard to deal with as I had imagined.
I am lucky as I have great family and friends supporting me so I can rest up.
You sound like you are going in with a great attitude and by the look of your profile pic you have a lovely family to give you plenty of TLC.
Good Luck and keep smiling!

PS - Even though I am so tired I still can't sleep through the night, so I get up have a herbal tea and read for a bit.
