Oh, please don't think of yourself as a "whimp" or "complainer" - you definitely are not and your feelings are very normal and understandable.

I think what you are experiencing is normal. It "hits" all of us differently and at different times. I started with the A/C routine and didn't have too much trouble and some suffer terribly on that. Then came the Taxol. Although that was better I did experience a lot of body pain also on that.

Hang in there. You're doing great. It gets OLD after awhile - I know -- but one day SOON it will all be hindsight and the benefits we get from this "CRAP" are worth what we may go through.

God Bless and a Huge hug I send,

Mary Jo
