Days 8-14: Happy to report I'm feeling pretty normal! The chemo fog has lifted and this past week I've felt like myself again. My hair should start to fall out any time now. Not super excited about that but I did pick out a few wigs that look like my normal hair. I was going to go different and go red but I didn't want to scare Alison!
I never did get the bone pain I was warned about when taking Neulasta. Yippee! Tomorrow I go for my second treatment of A/C chemo. My last A/C treatment is on July 29th, then I start Taxol. I'll be getting four treatments of Taxol, also biweekly, and if all goes according to schedule, I'll get my last treatment of that on September 23rd. During Taxol treatment, your hair can start to grow back, but you can start to lose your eyebrows and lashes. How your body differentiates between which type of hair you lose is beyond me, and my doctors, but apparently that's the way it usually plays out.
Thanks for all the love and prayers! :-)
