Just had my first chemo treatment yesterday and everything went fine.  I was expecting more side effects today, but so far I am feeling fine.  I will have to have 3 more treatments within the next 3 months.  


Anyone out there in my situation!

Been there done that, but am not on chemo right now.  Just wanted to say that I am glad you are doing well and am sending lots of prayers your way!

Having my 2nd today...
			
I am on TAC and will have my 2nd treatment today.  I didn't experience many side effects the first time and hoping that continues.  I go every 21 days for 6 sessions.  I think I experienced more side effects from the neulasta shot... I felt very achy and had flu-like symptoms from that.  I work full time so I have my chemo on Thursday; it seems the next day I feel real good from the steroids.  I pop over to the hospital at lunch time for the neulasta shot and go back to work.  By evening, I'm feeling a bit run down and then I have the entire weekend to recoup.  Well, at least that's how it was the first time.  I'm hoping for a replay ;)  Wishing you the best and hope that you continue to have little to no side effects!


Hugs ~ Mar
