Ok, bring it on.. chemo #3

Tomorrow 11/6/15, is my third of four double cocktail "Red Devil" A/C chemo therapy treatments. I do these every two weeks for a total of four treatments. I will them move on with 12 weeks of Taxol chemotherapy treatments each week. Then radiation.

This past two weeks has not been fun. Physically I was in so much pain in my joints and especially my chest/breast bone and it radiates to my back. This was nothing to do with infection, but a true deep bone pain from the Neulasta shot that "helps" (haha, ouch) keep my white blood cell counts up post chemo treatments. I actually ended up in the ER last Thursday because the pain was so bad. 

The good things I focus on are the wonderful help I am getting from my family and friends! I am blessed! 

Well, I'll try to post more tomorrow. Crossing my fingers that my port plays nice and works for the infusion nurses.
