Hi Sally,
I started off with Adriamycin and Cytoxin mixture. 4 treatments. Had a bad time at first until they slowed down the infusion, seems they were giving it to fast. Once they slowed it, it was a little easier to take. I had a lot of pain at the time, but I think it was from the Neulasta shot that I had to have after my A/C treatment. I lost my hair about two weeks after my first treatment.
My best thoughts are with you, you'll come thru it just fine, I'm sure.
Hugs
