    GO FOR IT!
    Good Luck and just breathe. It is do-able and while the side effects seem unsurmountable, remember its only hair and it will grow back! Its been almost a year since I finished chemo and I cannot believe how time has flown by. We will all be here for you when you need a shoulder to cry on or just to blow off some steam!!!

    God Bless you and good luck this afternoon.

    Hugs - Pat

    Good luck. You'll be just
    Good luck. You'll be just fine. You've done your research and until you have your first treatment, you won't know IF you will have any side effects. But, don't worry, if you do they are all very treatable. Most important, drink plenty of liquids, preferably water! Let us know how you do.

    I'm sure everything will be fine, just remember how special you are and how strong you really are. Positive thinking will become your best friend.

    doing good so far
    Actually I have done 4 rounds of Taxotere, avastin, and only 3 rounds of cappecitabine since I reached toxic level and had a bad case of hand foot syndrome. The taxotere really did a number on my fingernails and I have a couple that I will have to watch so that they don't fall off.

    Today went well. I feel alittle strange and tired. Going to bed now.
