Well T-minus an hour and a half to Chemo 4. Feeling apprehensive as its the first of the new drug Docetaxol but I don't feel as down about it as I did going in for the third FEC as I knew exactly what was to come. There's no way of telling if this cycle will be better or worse but everyone keep your fingers crossed for me :-)
I'm feeling back to normal yesterday and today for the first time this whole cycle, I have to take steroids from yesterday morning to prepare for the chemo today which can cause allergic responses. The up side of the steroids is the seem to have dampened down the inflation in my sinuses which has been causing me ingoing pain and the have perked me up a bit so I've been able to get out for a walk and enjoy time with family. The down side is it affects sleep but I didn't do too badly last night so feel ok today and ready to face chemical attack number four.
See you on the other side :-)
Thinking of you. Lx
ReplyDeleteHope it goes well xx
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess you had dose number 4 yesterday. I really hope you were pleasantly surprised by the side effects but expect they are just as bad as before.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you managed to have some 'well time' with your family, you all needed that.
How are your eyebrows? Are they still there?
Thinking of you and,as you said....you will indeed see us on the other side xxx
Felling ok, just really, really tired. Eyebrows and eyelashes are on their way out unfortunately :-(. More sad about hat than my hair for some reason, think because it will make me LOOK sick. It's only temporary though. Hope you had a lovely Christmas with your lovely family. Xxx
