Thank you all for your advice. Thanks for being so honest Perky about your treatment and I'm sorry to hear that you had such a crap time :(. At least I can learn from your experience and speak up early if I'm having problems. My oncologist said that the 12 weeks of Taxol are really the icing on the cake and the AC that I had is the important stuff and it's ok if I'm not able to finish the 12 weeks due to side effects.
I'm now armed and dangerous and ready for treatment number 1 on Friday :). I'll llet you know how I go.
Thanks again
Leigh
