Chemo starting 15th June

Hi Ren82, sorry to hear of you diagnose. I was the opposite and triple positive. If you click on my name you can read my bio of my journey so far. 
Also if you search for Irishgirl16 she had written a great blog - Chemo Side Effects - Hints & Tips 

Hopefully if you click on the link it will take you there. If not look for her and then in her blogs find “one life live it - Chemo side effects - hints and tips.”

Wishing you all the best for your journey.

Thanks cuffcake I start EC next week so that was helpful xx

Hiya. So sorry to hear your story. I have just finished adjuvant chemo 4 cycles ec and 3 cycles docetaxel. Was lucky in that side effects weren't too horrendous - lost about 80 percent hair through shredding rather than losing clumps. Got sepsis from first cycle docetaxel but oncologist reduced dose and I was fine after that. Your oncologost will probably frighten you by telling you every single side effect you will get. You may or may not get them. Make sure you monitor your temperature and don't be afraid to call your red card team if you have any questions or symptoms you aren't sure of. They are there to help. And also use here as there are plenty of people going through similar and able to give advice. 

It is totally natural to be s**t scared before your first chemo but once you have done that you wil have more confidence and will know more what to expect which makes things far easier.

Take care xxxx

Thanks it does help listening to others as everyone is different , also you pick up tips .x

In terms of working I was able to work reduced hours from home. Managed 60 percent hours while doing treatment increasing to 75 percent next week while I am between treatments 

Hi Ren82   I start the day after you, on 16th.

Me too Bonnie Boo  I start with EC

Check with your oncologist about working in office . I was told only to work from home from an infection risk point of view
