So glad to hear the first dose went smoothly and that the community support has been helpful during this time. Starting a new treatment can bring up many feelings, and it's wonderful that you're staying connected with others who understand this journey. Wishing you continued strength as you move forward with your treatment plan.

I started it almost 2 weeks ago. I've been doing pretty good. The first week was fine. This second week has been a little more of a challenge. I have been nauseated more, which Zofran has helped. Now, my bloodwork this week has dropped my WBC RBC levels really low. They are having me skip Tuesdays treatment until the next week, and adding 1 more day of the injections you get after each Chemo treatment. It's got me a little on edge. I'm putting my trust in my doctor and praying all will be fine.
