Hello all - just had first chemo

Hi Camino girl

Welcome to the group and sorry to hear that you have been diagnosed with breast cancer.  Hopefully you won't have too many side effects.

Wishing you the best of luck with your treatment.

Hi Cam

Sorry you've joined our club here of unwilling members. 

I am waiting to start chemo, but was told possibly same treatment as you. Would be interested to hear how you get on, and hopefully get away with SEs. I am scared too but its got to be done. 

Havr you got a port or Picc line done?

I'm starting Chemo  next Thursday, starting on EC for 3 sessions,  then Docetaxel for 3, every 3 weeks..going to get some bloods done tomorrow,  pic line in Monday morning at 9.30am followed by education session at 10.30am, more bloods done on Tuesday at home by district nurse, then wig fitting on Wednesday morning..

It's all go, no time to think. Just hope it all goes well..hope you all manage OK too..xx

So far so good. You will be fine. I had a cannula. Good luck and just relax when you are there

Trick is not to leave much thinking time so you just get cracked on  with isn't it? 

Good luck with the picc line. Just wondering why there is two bouts of bloods taken? I actually bought a wig online. Didn't bother with the fitting etc  have fun at your wig fitting. Do u know what you're going for? Long or short?

Will be thinking of you come Thursday.
