Hi Terri...I wish I could tell you what to expect but I can't. Sorry for using this space to post anyway. I just wanted to say how happy I am that your chemo experience, thus far, has been uneventful. Praise the Lord.
I, too, found chemo fairly doable (I did 4 dose dense A/C and 4 dose dense taxol w/herceptin starting at that time - I received herceptin every 3 weeks for one year).
I was able to exercise (not as vigoursly but exercise nonetheless) and work (I work part-time) throughout. I did take off a few days after each chemo cycle (mainly the a/c) but for the most part, held up well. As for my head of hair......................BALD AS A BABY'S BEHIND HONEY.
I also gained about 15 pounds but did loose all of that when treatment had ended.
Hope your new chemo regimen is just as uneventful for you.....praying for that
(keep us posted, will you?)
Mary Jo
