My First Taxol/Herceptin today

[Tracy]

I had my 1st of 12 treatments today and so far am feeling ok. I am hoping to breeze through this as my onc said I may. Hope all of you are that are doing this treatment now are doing well. I amencouraged by your posts.

You should do fine on this treatment. Just think, only 11 more with chemo involved. Herceptin alone is like nothing and your hair will start growing back too!!!


Have a great evening.

Tracy,

I hope you do well on the taxol tx. I had mine dense dose. I think I'd have preferred weekly.

I think you will be fine!

I'm a couple treatments ahead of you . I'll keep you posted on how I'm handling it. Hopefully, it will give you encouragement. (if you need it!). It's sounds like your doing quite well, mentally with all of this.
I felt just as good after the 2nd as I did the 1st.
Today was my 3rd treatment.
Only difference is that the tipsy/sleepy feeling went away after about 5 hrs instead of 2 or 3. My legs also feel achy today. Don't know if that's from chemo or from not exercising enough. Guess I'll start on a more strict exercise plan tomorrow.
By 9pm I was feeling "normal" again.
Here it is 1pm and I think I'm suffering from insomnia lately.
Sleep for couple of hours at night, then up for 1 hr or so.
I think it's more due to everything going thru my mind more at night.
Hopefully, the insomnia will improve over time.
Woo Hoo! 3 down 9 to go!
25% done! Glass quarter full!
