Hey Sheila My side effects changed a little and have just got into a kind of routine now! First cycle I had a bad mouth ulcer, thrush and dodgy tummy. As I got further on in cycles I started getting swollen ankles with the steroids and really heavy and achey legs.. Got horrible tax mouth (losing taste of everything for about a week) from the second cycle and also tended to get constipated just after chemo then really bad diarrhoea about a week in. Also started on omeprazole for awful acid reflux and don't have any trouble now. Also at about cycle 4 started getting really streamy eyes and they'd get quite gunky overnight - that's quite a new side effect, more annoying than anything!!! Hope the side effects are kind to you!! It sounds like a lot but honestly it wasn't as bad as I was expecting.. Just have to make sure if I go out I know where the toilets are!! Xxx
