Re: Off to my first taxotere/carboplatin/herceptin infusion..
KSGal,
Ahhhhh I remember the day so well when I had that first treatment. I hope that all goes well for you. I think the not knowing what to expect is the worst and then after a few days you know what to expect and it is not so bad. Be kind to your body, give it what it wants, drink lots of water and rest. I remember people telling me it will be over before you know it. I can't say it was before I knew it but looking back it seemed like it was never going to end and here I am now done, feeling good and trying to move forward. you will too. Keep us posted. Good luck to you and god bless. Darlene
