I'm still on 3ks of Taxol and one week off with my weekly Herceptin (it's really working well!) and don't have whiskers but do have more hair (not much though) on my head than I did with last year's CEF-Taxotere regime.
Maybe I should get a big wheel to run in and lose some of this chemo/middle aged/stress(comfort eating) weight.
Some of the sleepless nights (not recently) may have been form the nocturnal hamster habits too.
Time for some sunflower seeds. Thanks for all the laughs today.
