My injection 6mg Neulasta has to be done at least 24 hours after my chemo so the chemo nurses leave in my fridge and I just have to take out of fridge half an hour before they arrive the next day. I have been following all your posts but haven’t worked out how to make my own post! I have my 4/6 FEC cycle this Wed. I’m lucky that my husband gets Bupa through his work so all my treatment is done at home , chemo nurses visit once a week on weeks 2/3 and three times on treatment week (bloods, chemo, injection) I had a 30mm grade 2 ER+ HER2 - tumour removed, with an Onco test of 31 the oncologist recommended adjuvant chemotherapy to reduce the risk of the cancer coming back. I feel ill (like a hangover without the alcohol 🤣) for about 5 days per cycle. Dizzy, breathless, metallic taste etc but the rest of the time I can cope with. Lost my hair halfway between cycles 2/3. Have a wig, variety of hats but mostly just embrace it.
