That's great you are feeling OK. I will start my chemo sometime in the next month or so, will find out more on Tuesday. It's good to hear others experiences and tips.

Best of luck with it all.

That's great news, I was extremely ill when on FEC, lot of vomiting the first 24 hours, it's nice to hear of someone getting little side effects
