Guest guest Posted February 1, 2007 Report Share Posted February 1, 2007 Hi Tammy, I'm one of the group that had anything that could go wrong, go wrong. I was very healthy when I started so it surprised me that I would have these things go wrong. My Onc said she had seen all the side effects (actually, more like the " risks " ) but she had never seen them ALL in one patient. I spent almost 40 days in the hospital throughout my dose-dense chemo (A/C, then taxol) I had low counts, allergic reaction, and a couple of infections, one of which tried to kill me, seriously. My Onc and a partner that saw me in the hospital told me in no uncertain terms that I should have the talk with my kids. It was purely ugly. My positive with the negative? I whooped its ass! I didn't leave. I won! So, as bad as you may feel it is. (if it gets to that point, it may not) But, if you have a bad time here & there just know you can beat it. Keep positive and fight like hell. :-) We can do it! You can do it! Love & Hugs, Dari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
