    Toni,
    Tomorrow will probably go better than you expect. I found that my first Chemo day was not nearly as bad as I had thought it would be. It sounds like you have a great attitude. The beast has no chance with your attitude.

    Good Luck tomorrow and God Bless.

    I just finished my 6th & last treatment(TAC) in July-I was hysterical on my first visit (I was big baby with Drs.),but it really isn't all that bad. Take plenty of things to do-magazines, word puzzles, etc. I was bored stiff after hysterics wore off!!!!

    Hi, how did it go? Usually side effects don't start until a few days after treatment. I hope you feel okay. just checking up on you. remember, this is your first time. take it one treatment at a time. don't think too far ahead. they'll be over before you know it. just ask god to get you thru one more treatment. always,,,,just one more lord. god bless. yvette
