My treatments

Someone on here had asked what my treatments are. I can't find that post to reply. So my treatments are cytoxan/adriamycin every 2 weeks x4 treatments (#3 will be tomorrow). This will be followed by 12 weekly taxol treatments. Also have neulasta auto injector every session. So far I have lost 90% of my hair on my head. Eyebrows still good. The "girl whiskers" have thinned out, yay!! I would say even leg and underarms have thinned too. I do find my nausea is more frequent the first few days. I have also found thinking I don't feel bad today so I won't take a pill is a bad choice. I end up sick for most of the day. I do get flushng the first few days. Benadryl helps with that. My biggest issue beyond nausea is just feeling tired. Hope this helps.
