Well, I am done with my 4 treatments of Adriamycin and halfway to done with Chemo!! Yay!  Next treatment will be my first of 4 treatments of Taxol.  I meet with my medical oncologist Dr. Christensen on Valentine's Day to go over how my past treatments were and what to expect with the next round.  I am hoping to get off some if not all of the other pills I take for nausea, we shall see.  This last round has gone fairly well so far, I am tired as usual but feeling OK.  Onward....

I had the third treatment last week.  I would have to say if there is a trick to feeling "OK", it would be to drink lots of water the day before and the day of treatment.  I have the usual heartburn and tummy issues but not nearly as bad as the couple of days after treatment 2 and that's all I can think of that's different.  I am a little more tired, I think, but not too bad.  One more of this kind of treatment and then I am 1) half way thru...Yay and 2) on to a different kind of chemo....which is suppose to not make me queasy so hopefully I don't have to take all these pills anymore.  Time is flying by...will be back to my normal self in no time!
