anyone else with these side effects

I made one post on this and I am appreciative for everyone's support but I would love to hear from anyone who has actually had the same side effects that I have had to my chemo which consisted of 4 treatments over 12 weeks time of Adriamycin and Cytoxen. The side effects were as follows:

second week after treetment....fevers for about 5 days with headaches

problems with severe dry eyes that led to corneal abrasions and changes in the surface of the corneas

styes

rashes on upper chest, upper back and sporadic ones here and there

mouth sores, burning tongue and ulcers on tongue

bone pain from Neulasta injections

extreme and I mean extreme fatigue

I would love to hear from you if you have experienced any of these side effects and how you managed them and how long they lasted after completing treatment. Also, how long did it take to feel well again after completing treatment? Thank you for your feedback. I look forward to getting responses.
