Hi Peacock,
Its good that you now know your continued regime…at least, your body is adjusted to the Taxotere and that your side effects will be manageable.Thats true about the devil you know…

Hi girls,
I had my first Epi last Wed., like Bagelo even before my session ended I had a terrible migrane headache and ended up back in hospital as I couldn’t stop being sick and wanted to throw the towel in there and then, I am not usually like this at all, quite a fighter to be honest.
They say they will administer my antisickness drug prior 2 days before the next session to see if this helps me get over the sickness better, I hope so.
Like a few more… headaches, sickly feeling, heartburn, tired, a cold, looks like it’s all side effects of the treatment, 1 down 3 to go then onto CMF for 6, can’t wait for it to end, soooooo hate to be sick.
Love and best wishes to you all, stay well.

Hi all,
we all seem to share some if not all of the same symptoms to a lesser or greater degree!
Carol, do you eat plenty and drink loads before you have your Epi? I pig out pretty much and haven’t felt sick at all really. Just this blessed lethergy and lack of any energy. Given that I am self-employed…it’s a bit of a problem.
Love to all n all

Hi Gillian and all,
I ate my breakfast, toast and marmalade, quite enjoyed it, must admit to probably not drinking as much as I should so will try more next time, ate an early lunch on return but 2 hours later was throwing it up, won’t look at carrot and lentil soup ever again!!!.
I used to get migraines a long time ago and in general if my tum is upset I get a headache, this was like migraine, even head movements made me sick, couldn’t keep the antisickness tablets down to stop me being sick so they took me to hospital to do it.
I hope next time my body is ready for it, maybe because they plan to change things around I hope I will be better, went to the docs and she gave me some heartburn meds and that seems to have done the trick.
Me too, all last week I was so tired, slept for England, this week I feel back to my old self, quite chirpy… long may it last.
Love and best wishes to you all, nice to know there are others who feel like me and I am not a total wimp.
Take care, stay well,
Love, Carol xx
