Hi @Penny001,
Welcome to the forum sweets. Such a supportive place to be and always some great advice and warmth here. Chemo scares the heck out of everyone. It's the big bad boogeyman of the ride. The initial oncology appointment I found the hardest of the lot apart from the diagnosis and really lost the plot.
Luckily, for the most part it's probably not going to be as disgustingly horrid as our brains like to conjur up. Depending on what regime you are having there will be a lot of people on here that have had the same cocktail to provide helpful hints and support.
The hardest part is nobody can tell you how you are going to react. Some people get through not to badly at all and there are a lot of drugs these days to counteract the side effects.
I had the ever popular ACT so 4 x 3 weekly AC and 12 x weekly taxol. While the AC was no walk in the park I was still able to work, run my farm, ride my horse, do the shopping and renovate my living room. I kept my hair with the cold cap and had a lot of fun times along the way. Some days were shit but there were a lot that weren't.
Keep talking to us lovely, we've been there and understand the fear, confusion and emotional ups and downs.
