A panic attack on first day of Taxol
Well this morning I was feel ok until I got to the hospital for Part2 of my chemo , today was the first Taxol of every week for 12 weeks . At home I felt ok and happy because I am now half way through my treatment but upon entering the hospital I was feeling scared again and holding back the tears. I cried when I spoke to my Oncologist then I panicked and broke down once I sat in the chemo chair and just wanted to run away and go home because I was scared again of the unknown of how my body would react after having a dreadful time with the 12 weeks of AC unwell for most of it until the last dose was dropped to 80% . Last week I had a good week and even we out to dinner on the weekend. This morning the nurse gave me something to calm me down before Taxol treatment . I was very tired and nodded off a few times then went straight to bed when I got home at 1 pm and didn't wake up until 5pm. I was not very hungry but had a small dinner. Today I was not given any medication to bring home so that must be a good thing that I may not have nausea which this treatment.
Up until now from the AC I have had horrific nausea, hot and cold body, loss hair, headaches only with fatigue getting worse with each day
Has any of you had nausea, lost fingernails, or put on weight with 12 weeks of weekly Taxol.
Take care you wonderful bunch of people having you all here makes this horrible journey a easier to keep getting through. Thank you from the bottom of my heart :) xx
