HI Cass and Wendy, I have just finished 3 rounds of FEC, I am about to start the Docetaxel and am feeling afraid. I have suffered some bad side effects of which one is the mouth ulcers. I have found that applying Bonjela onto the mouth ulcers relieves the pain and I am also have just started using biotene Oral balance which is a dry mouth moisturising gel. It helps a lot. Ive got my pandaol osteo lined up and ready for the next phase. I have also been on the Neulasta injection for the last 2 FEC as ended up in hospital for five days after the first chemo as got an infection. Other side effects I have had are sores on head, complete hair loss, nausea, vomiting, stomach discomfort, aches and pains from the neulasta and generally fatique, weakness and tiredness. I dont eat much in the first week but that does not worry me as nothing has any taste. Thanks for listening.
