I started my new chemo regime yesterday and it went very well. I say new, its the carbo/taxol that I have had twice before but given every week for 3 weeks instead of once every 3 weeks. The fourth week is a break from chemo (although I still have to go to the hospital to see the consultant) and then the cycle starts again. I was booked to have a pre-chemo chat beforehand, but was told I didn't need it as I am an "expert" at having chemo. I must say that on my list of "things I would like to be good at", having chemo wasn't one of them! However, I am feeling quite uplifted this morning as I like to think of the chemo drugs as my own private army, charging round inside me. overpowering and then getting rid of this nasty invader. Holding on to that thought, I send very best wishes to everyone in Macland and hope today is a good one for you all.
Take care and feel well,
Love lizzie xx
