Hi Keitha
Yes, I am taking the Somac at the moment. It does help. I still have the yucky taste in my mouth as well. Wish we all could taste food like we used to... miss it heaps. Hate that taste and feeling in the mouth..... so over it.
Finished chemo sessions of FEC and now am on Taxol for the next 9 sessions. So my tummy isn't feeling well at the moment. Had my 2nd Taxol last Friday. So taking Somac again.... so over it...
Had a horror session Friday, as they had to try 4 times to put the canulla in, as my veins decided to collapse and no blood flow. So after having the canulla in the blood test came back inconclusive that they had to put a needle in my arm to take further bloods out. So by the end of 5 "stab wounds" to the arm, my arm said "thats enough". I had pain in the arm upto my elbow, so they had to slow down the flow of chemo into my arm. I totally felt sorry for myself that day... :( ..... "Not happy Jan", as now I have heaps of bruises on my arm.
Sorry to hear that you keep having migraines. Maybe you need to let your oncologist know.
As for the dizzy spells, I was having them with real shortness of breath. My oncologist made me have another CT scan as they were worried it could have been clots on the lungs or my heart. But all came back OK. So they decided it was the chemo making me feel that way. So mention it to your oncologist as well.
Take care and keep us posted. Love and hugs Julie XX
