snoopy you get into a pattern and figure out when your good times are. On th FEC I felt spaced out and wobbly for about 5/6 days. I was nauseous but not physically sick. The first cycle was the hardest: I was pretty miserable, and was very achy, but I got better anti sickness for the second cycle onwards and the achews and pains were less. By the second week of each cycle I was back doing the school runs and driving. Still very tired, but doing OK. By the third week I was on reasonable form, going out for lunch with friends and supermarket shopping etc. Honestly, the hard first few days go pretty quickly, particularly if you get decent anti sickness meds and you are sensible and get lots of rest. Just listen to your body and do what you need to do. Eat a bit of whatever you fancy, don't worry too much about what it is. Drink plenty of fluids, as it flushes the drugs through your system. I found fizzy stuff settled my stomach, diet coke, fizzy water etc.
I didn't do so well on my first Docetaxol, so won't comment too much on that one! I'll let you know after Monday how i get on with the next one.
You'll do great, love. Stick with us and we can see you through it all x x
