WBC was very low today.. they gave me the treatment. But I will go back tomorrow for injection to bring WBC up. It will then Come from a special pharmacy every and a nurse from my former job will give it to me day after. There office is in my town so that is good.
Starting to lose my hair faster. Shedding on comb in the morning. But the side effects are not to bad. Day 123 are really good day 4567 are achy bone pain in legs. I told my doctor I was taking marijuana candy on worst day. She said take it all four days and do not feel guilty. She she laughed and said why suffer at all. She offered pain meds and I said I will stick with the candy but not all four days. 1/2 maybe.

You sound like you are doing really well and tolerating the chemotherapy, which is great! I hope that your treatment kicks the cancer into remission for a very long time.
Thank you for keeping us posted. Happy to hear that your treatment is going better than expected. Hoping this treatment will kick those tumors to the curb!
Hi Jersey girl. A few minutes ago I sent a post on a reply to you asking how you are doing. I just saw this post of yours. Glad to get the update. Sounds like you are being strong. Keep it up and munch on the 'candy' if it helps!
Keep your spirits up and keep laughing! The CBD is supposed to really help with pain. I have a coworker that uses the CBD cream for pain...she had cortisone shots and nerve block injections and she said the cream worked better and very quickly for pain...😀
Glad you're tolerating and I agree with Dr.-- do whatever it takes to get through the side effects. I'm on taxol, too. It's shrinking my tumors and I'm very grateful! xo Lynn
