I wasn't going to do this......but.......

[~Bellydancer~]

I wasn't going to jinx myself but I think that it is safe now. I have completed ALL 3 of the taxotere and I am living to tell about it. I had the last tx on Thursday of last week. I have no appetite but also my throat is nothing like it was, I can eat and drink fine. The muscle pain is worse this time but I can live with that. I took advise and have been taking allergy meds which I think are the key. I noticed that after the Dex wears off I get itchy, there is no occurance of hives but that is what it feels like. Maybe it was an allergic reaction that was delayed because of the steroid?
I am so proud of myself and all of us who have completed this part of the journey. I have to say that this was by far the most difficult thing I had to do, and I gave birth 3x au natural, the first being 10lbs 6 ozs. That was an ouch!
I go on April 15th to be marked for Radiation and will start that the end of April for 5 weeks. Then I am taking the summer off to enjoy my life, my hubby and most of all my kids. they have been really good thru all of this and I think we all deserve some ice cream and some fun in the sun. (I'll enjoy the ice cream when my taste buds come back!)
I just want the say THANK YOU, DANKA, MERCI to everyone for their help, love and support.
