    what a wild ride this has been .
    I'd like to say i have done well on the chemo,and i guess I have in some ways but it just kept getting worse and worse ,there wasnt a side effect i havent had and it got so bad that I ended up in the hospital Friday and Saturday , the shortness of breath and discomfort in the chest (not pain ,discomfort takeing in a breath)they checked the heart and did echos for that , checked for blood clots and some other stuff and everything came back ok, i came home saturday with no answers, i have another chemo this thursday , i dont know if i will take it , they did somewhat decide it was the wbc shot messing me up , and i thought that all along , when i got it 2 weeks ago i came home and havent felt well since. I also have also come down with a rash that started on my thumb and is now a little here and there and comes and goes off and on all day . Its really strange , i've lost 12 lbs in two weeks , i still have no taste what so ever, and on and on.I know I needed to do this to try to stop it from coming back but now i'm worried it is doing me more harm than good , i really dont know if i should take the last chemo this week,much less get the wbc shot , any advice;
