Actually, the chemo was not all that bad. I was on a pretty strong regime of Taxotere, Xeloda and Herceptin. Aside from losing my hair, terrible rib pains, hot flashes, and the hand foot thing with Xeloda, it was bearable. Always had pain medicine to take if it got too bad. I hated the extra weight I put on with the Decodron and was mostly aggrivated that I couldn't continue to play tennis and work out like I use to to. I still managed to get a game in when my hands and feet weren't too bad. You will survive it, they have come a long way. I am not in any hurry to get back on it again, I am finally getting a little energy back and my hair is growing...sherryg683
