Hi Melanie,
I've been working almost full time since diagnosis in mid June. I had a mastectomy early July and only needed two weeks off before I started back in full time again. I did dose-dense AC and took off day of treatment (always a Friday), and then I usually worked from home the following Wednesday as that's when I'd feel the most fatigued. I'm on #7 of 12 weekly Taxol/Herceptin, and the weekly Taxol has been pretty easy. A little bit of muscle and joint pain, but nothing too outrageous. I'm not nearly as tired as I was on AC either. Granted, I still get tired, but it's manageable, and I'm back up to walking two miles a day. I work full days Monday thru Thursday and then do my treatment on Fridays. Don't know what to expect when I start rads, but Taxol has been a lot easier than AC!
