BAD NEWS PLEASE HELP ABSOLUTELY DISTRAUGHT

Reactions to chemo vary immensely - like primek I  got a bit of a bloody nose on weekly taxol and some issues with fingers and toes. I never had nausea from either of my chemo cocktails nor had any side effects from herceptin. It's much harder to do than to say but if you can try some relaxation techniques it may help - the body has a great capacity to respond to anxiety with aches and pains, I get them every year before my annual tests! I too would recommend starting - doing what you can to be back in charge of your life is a great boost. We can do surprising stuff - scared or not. Best wishes.
