Hi, I'm starting Chemo this September and will be having3 cycles of Epirubicin and Cyclophosphamide, then 3 cycles of Nab-paclitaxel. Anyone else starting this month?
Hi
Good luck for today let me know how you get on I’m starting mine on Thursday and really anxious too xx
Hi well the actual chemo was ok. But last night I was very sick, by 2am was in a &e and now I'm staying in again tonight!! Have been on 3 different IV anti sickness and its been awful!
But saying that mine is an unusual reaction Missy so please dont worry. Xx
Good luck to you all with your chemo, I am currently halfway through mine so will linger around and give you any advice I can. It’s a long path but there is an end and you will be there soon enough xx
Hello Missy60
i have just finished six cycles of FEC chemo. Please please try not to worry yourself too much, chemo is not as bad as we all fear, everyone is different and I’m hopeful you will be one of the lucky ones and have few, very manageable side effects, the chemo staff are all brilliant and work hard to ensure that any problems you do have are dealt with as soon as possible. You are stronger than you think. Before you know it you will be looking back on your treatment with a well deserved sense of pride that YOU DID IT!!!!
