Hi Brenda. You need to really and strongly talk to your docs. I stopped the whole H-C-T after three treatments when I went and got a second opinion. I had dreadful reactions--hospitalized for the first one. It is NOT normal to be in such horrid pain--or no one would DO chemo. The nausea can be controlled, the aches from Neulasta -my WBC went to 35,000! created painful migraines. Stand up for yourself. Five years ago, neither of us would have even gotten chemo. I was incapacitated for months. Now another doc says in her 25 years she has never seen anyone so "over-treated".. find an ONC who ONLY treats breast cancer... just my two cents.. westswon
