Hi Marjorie,
I had AC chemo, and am now up to my 10th of 12 Taxol, although I won't be having Herceptin. Taxol is easier to handle, but what I have found is that with AC,by the third week after a dose, I would feel pretty much normal, however with Taxol, I never quite felt back to normal at any stage, although I didn't have the extreme lows of AC. Now that I am nearly finished Taxol, I do find it is catching up with me, and feel quite fatigued. The dr has just given me the next two weeks off work to make sure I get to the end. I also had an allergic reaction to the first dose of Taxol, which means extra pre meds for me each dose.
Good on you for finishing AC, that is an achievement. Good luck with the rest of your treatment. We all just want it to go smoothly, huh, not much to ask! Jane
