Hi Shelli, hope you went allright with the chemo today. I am on TAC what they introduced to me as their "golden" treatment; I had no idea what they were talking to me about at the time. And then I give myself a white blood cell injection the next day supposedly cause it's killing all mine. I also have a finget issue; swollen fingers with hypersensitive fingertips - they don't know what it is but I have just started some medication which we hope reduced swelling (quality of life ain't that flash); plus my eyebrows are practically zero which makese look a little scary. I have to have some type of humour because otherwise I would be constantly crying and boy am I sick of crying. I will try some of your food and bev ideas especially the peppermint tea. I can't seem to find a tea I like and I was a bit of a tea drinker. Again hope you are ok and I presume the chemo side effects will hit you in a couple of days - everyone's different apparently. Take Care.
