Colds
Hi Bonnie,
There is no way you will not be exposed to colds and if you catch one, it is not the end of the world. I taught third graders through out the time I was receiving AC plus T. I used to joke that it was like living in a petri dish in my classroom. The students had colds and even Strep. My counts were also low. I did catch one or two colds, but they were no worse than when I wasn't receiving chemo. The hardest part was day 3 and 4 when my bones ached from the Taxol. I was told Taxol would be that easiest, but for me it was harder because I had that bone pain. Of course, it is better to avoid getting sick on Chemo, but if it happens you will get through it.
Good luck,
Barbara H.
