I wish someone had directed me to this site at the time I was dx. I did not run across it until into my 2nd round of chemo and I could have really used the information and support a lot.
I do not regret taking the steroids before, during and right after chemo tx. For me it was a good precautionary measure to take against possible neuropathy problems.
