Stage 4 Category 5 I have had no serious side affects. I lost hair; had a small problem with my nails; and have occasional fatigue. My lifestyle has changed quite a bit - but I am taking care of my self and eat healthy food. My taste buds have been affected but I eat any way and make sure it is a healthy meal> 5 small meals a day. I feel like I have breezed through this therapy and I am on 4 chemo drugs. My doctors are amazed at my ability to handle this heavy coctail I am on. My cancer count went form 256 to 30 in 31/2 months now it is at 22 -- effectively I have no cancer in my body as anything below 52 is considered normal. I have 6 more weeks and expect to have a hange in my therapy at that time stayin on 1 infusion and one oral therapy. When I got my diagnosis I said -- NO -- not gonna happen Looks like I was right :) I have undergone 6 months of chemo for breast lung and bone cancer. Stage 4 Category 5

We just think of hair loss & appetite, nausea & vomiting, and being extremely tired. There is so much more to than this. There are so many side effects that the chemo causes. I now have asthma and my vision has changed slighty. Knowing all of this I still would have gone through chemo. I must say to all that is going through chemo, "Hang on and have faith, I know it's tough, but it only lasts for a while, not a lifetime!"
