Starting chemo next week

@pollytps good luck for this week!  I am on the same regime and have finished the AC component and am on the last recovery week before moving to taxol.  I have a port which makes accessing for bloods and giving of chemo and other meds so much easier.  My tip is be kind to yourself, fatigue is real and hopefully your breast care nurse has gone through all the side effects and suggested meds to buy to be prepared.  I found the AC rough and it took me 10 days to come right, - others don’t have many issues so hopefully you are in that bucket. It helps to be hydrated, as this helps flush the drug through.  I wish some one would have told me the effects lift and you will start to feel normal again.  I couldn’t understand why I felt so unwell, nausea, difficulty swallowing, talking (oral thrush), brain fog and then the fog starts to lift in your head.Keep talking to your oncologist because they are brilliant at giving you meds to manage side effects that crop up each round.
