Results are in...treatment has begun

Hi Celeste, You have been on my mind, and in my prayers all week. Like you, I was hoping you would be in the 1% and get a negative result. I'm very sad for you. It is good that treatment has started so quickly, and I hope it won't give you a rough time. I didn't have a bad time with taxotere, so hopefully you won't either. Take all the medications they give you, as it is easier to prevent nausea than to treat it. Apart from a few ridges on my nails, ( like growth rings on a tree ) I didn't have any issues. I painted them with a pale pink nail strengthener that was supplied in the taxotere kit. My toe nails were fine, and they didn't even offer ice for toes. I also found that panadol 4 hourly worked really well for aches and pains that arrived on day 4 and 5. Good luck with your treatment plan, and remember , we are all here to support you. Love Chris xx
