Post chemo blues

I had the exact same treatment as you. Yes the AC sucks and it does take its toll on you. After my last AC I ended up in hospital twice for infection and neutropenia.

The fatigue is still there but a lot less than when I was on AC, I've even managed to start doing some exercise again. And because taxol doesn't really affect your neutrophils I haven't been in hospital since. Taxol will be much better I promise, well at least it was for me.
good luck
