This past Monday I had my 3rd infusion of Taxol, and so far so good. Other than feeling tired, I have not experienced any significant side effects. I have been warned that as I continue I may still develop neuropathy, but I'm staying positive that this portion of treatment will be easier. I have had a little bit of swelling in my left arm and I have been keeping up with my massage and exercise to keep it in check.
I have had more energy these past three weeks than when I started chemo. I have been getting out more and able to be a bit more productive. Let me just say that going out to dinner with my husband is great! I've missed it so very much and I'm glad to be able to handle short outings. My oncologist is pleased with my progress, and wants me to push myself a little more through these last weeks.
I am pleased with my progress too. Although I have my ups and downs, I finally feel like I will be on the other side of "this" soon.
