Im really hoping you are feeling a little better Lara. Each day will improve remember that. I too had a shocker with chemo 1 & I ended up being admitted to hospital with diarrhea. After 2 days of tests & iv fluids, repeated stool cultures my oncologist ssid it was a reaction to the taxotere..my body couldn't cope. So he reduced all 3 TAC chemos by 15% and this worked close to perfect for me. He said some adjustment is quite normal. Its a scary tine though isn't it..you just want it all to go smoothly. I was teary through out my stay.
Dont let it throw you though, stay strong & be as organized as you can in week 3 when you come good. .I was still paranoid about germs bugs etc...Glen 20 was my best friend. ..ha ha.
Make you number one through chemo. Hugs to your beautiful children.
Take care
