Becky I remember it well, it's horrible! I was allergic to maxolon so only thing that helped me was Ativan, to relax and somehow took the edge off. Nexium worked it's the best you can use, but depends also on where in your chemo cycle you are. Eating I found horrendous, so ate little and tried to hydrate. Was a nightmare and due to 4.5months of being incredibly sick I was hospitalised through FEC the red devil. On taxol I was bedridden and couldn't even walk to my letterbox in the end, my muscles wasted from inactivity and I put on 6kg, which a year on won't come off. BUT road to recovery has been long but am kicking goals now, thanks to an exercise physiologist, there is life after this, try stay focused, you'll get through it! Hugs Melinda xo
