I had taxotere combined with cyclophosphamide, and didn't have too many issues. I think from memory, ( 2 years ago), I had a touch of all the side effects, but on a scale of 1 to 10, nothing was worse than a 2 or 3. Chemo didn't prevent me from doing anything, though day 4 became known as my blob day. I found it hard to get off the lounge on that day, but otherwise, I still enjoyed a good social life, and managed to go out for all coffee dates. I wish you well. Just remember to take all the medications you are given. My Oncologist assured me that the reason I felt so OK was because I took everything, and nausea didn't get a hold on me. Love Chris xx
