Hi,
I was diagnosed with Grade 3, triple negative invasive breast cancer at the start of January. I had my first Chemo on the 1st Feb ( docetaxel and Cyclophosphamide).
I had a reaction to docetaxel, felt light headed so they gave me antihistamines and steriods and was fine again after 30 mins. I then was given Cyclophosphamide and was fine until later in the evening when I started to get a tight chest and breathlessness....so off to A&E I go! Few more antihistamines and it all settled again.
Two weeks on and I've been fine and I've even gone back to work (working from home on a computer).
However the last few days the fatigue and brain fog has hit me. I do suffer with Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue anyway so I am used to it but I'm wondering how other people have felt 2 weeks after treatment?
I've also notice my scalp is a little tender and my hair is starting to come out. I have shaved my head in preparation, so I'm not bother by losing it, just still a bit of a shock now its started.
Oh, I also had the covid vaccine last Thursday which again ended up in a trip to A&E as my temperature went up over 38°!
It's certainly been an eventful few weeks for me!
Cheers
