Have you had any heart tests during your treatment? My HR still gets quite high compared to my effort levels when I’m running. I’ll be running along, chatting easily as I go and I can even sing while my heart is in 170-180 range which would be Z4 in the olden days. Since my scans are all fine, doctors are unbothered by the high HR.
I’m sure your dad means well but if it feels okay to you and you’ve had checks of your heart, I would just continue doing what you’re doing.
Thank you for sharing! That’s interesting you have experienced something similar. I am due to have an echocardiogram on Wednesday (I think as standard). Hopefully the results from that will be reassuring. I know what you mean - it doesn’t feel like my HR is that high even if it is!
Hi, I was the same. My heart rate would go higher but I just kept an eye on it and if I got too close to my max heart rate I’d slow down for a min or so till it dropped a little then I’d go again so long as I felt ok. It defo spiked a lot quicker than before chemo, particularly when I ran rather than doing spin classes etc. All my heart scans were fine and I’m finding things easier now I’m done - my heart rate was lower than my husbands for the first time in 20 months after a run we done together yesterday (I got ECT last year then was on Kadcyla for 10 months which I just finished mid September)
Morning all, I’m on week 10 of 12 weekly cycles of Paclitaxol and the main side effect i’ve had for the last few weeks is neuropathy in my feet. They reduced the dose and I’ve had a weeks break which has improved things so I’m gritting my teeth and sucking up the last couple of cycles….really don’t want to but it is what it is. Teh neuorpathy is there and its damaged my toe nails on my left foot. Its also started making my fingernails hurt. I think the winter cold is not helping though. In case anyone else is getting problems, I thought I’d share what I’ve tried. If anyone has any other suggestions please let me know. Thing’s I’ve tried:
polybalm every day on toe and finger nails.
plasters over my toe nails and some silicon protectors over my toes.
I’ve just come back from morning circuits in the park, it was lovely in the sun but freezing! But I managed 4 sprints and jog/fast walk there and back 
So far so good looking at my toes.
I haven’t really cried much with chemo, I feel like this whole cancer and chemo has tried to take alot from me, which makes me furious, but I did this morning coming home. 18 days left to go then I’m done
Hello fellow exercise lovers. Does anyone have experience running after starting aromatase inhibitors or tamoxifen? Im feeling a bit pessimistic today about these.
