Unicorngirlmummy & Snoozysuz, had my first round of TC (docetaxel-cyclophosphamide) today, felt a bit sickly but taking the meds. I too am dreading the jabs starting on Wednesday as they totally floored me last time, trying a different approach of having them at teatime rather than morning so when it kicks in I’m off to bed! So fingers crossed.
Hope you now have your plan Snoozysuz as at least you know what your dealing with and can plan, it’s not nice but got to be done! We can all smash this???
Hi walkerlass, hope the sickness has eased off? The sister in my chemo unit said to take the jabs in the evening which is what I’ve done & my side effects to those have been quite minimal really. I do have to set an alarm on my phone to get it out of the fridge at 8.30 & another to do the injection! ?
Finally feeling more human with more energy today, it’s taken almost 2 weeks though ?
Hope you have a treatment plan snoozysuz & hope your side effects aren’t too awful walkerlass. Lots of love xxx
Hi all
i had tnbc in right in 1998 and then again in left in 2012. I just got yo my 5 year anniversary in December and have found. 3cm Meningioma ( brain tumour ). Waiting on results of whole body t scan . Assume they are looking foe BC mets. I actually found it all easier second time round as you know what to expect xx
Oh Wendy56 I’m so sorry to hear this! To get to 5 yrs we kinda think we’re over the worst. How was this picked up? Did you just have lumpectomies and not mastectomies? Hope your results are good and you get them very soon, as the waiting is the hardest. Xx
Hi walkerlass, just saying hello & to see how you’re doing? Xx
Hi unicorngirlmummy, I’m doing ok thanks, chemo no 3 next week so fingers crossed it goes ahead. Seem to be comping better this time, not sure if it’s a different lower dose of the chemo or because you know what to expect but I’m not letting it get the better of me this time! I am in control!! X
