Hiya
Just to reassure you, I found CMF a LOT easier than Epi. I finished chemo last August and had no problems at all with CMF, no tiredness, no sickness, you still get the yukky taste, but the plus side is that your hair grows back! Honestly sweetie, hang on in there, you’re nearly done and you WILL find it easier. After that, the rads is a breeze, just the travelling to and from every day, but at least you feel normal.
Hope this helps.

Hi Bobbie,
We have spoke before, and you are not being selfish at all, we all need reassuring, and plenty of ladies I am sure will reply. I can only tell you of my experience on CMF which honestly was tons better than the EPI. I went out for lunch, shopped, was able to do all my housework (never thought I would be pleased to say that!) and the energy level was brilliant compared to how I had been on the EPI. My head was much clearer as I always felt a bit fuzzy on the EPI, I am now on Radio, you will get through it Bobbie, sending you a big hug, and lots of love. We will be behind you every step of the way. Hope this has helped a wee bit. Thinking of you
Love
