Hello jenn-uk
I was wondering how you
are up there in Scotland. We have not heard from you since you posted
on December 7th and I replied on December 8th
giving what help I could. I remember you were having scans today so I
am posting to ask how you got on. I know you have a big day on
December 16th as well.I do hope you are
viewing as Michael has popped in with some useful information about
chemotherapy drugs. Please have a look at it as he has pointed out
that you can take Xeloda (capecitabine) for as long as it is working.
I seem to remember you posted that you have been told that you have
used up all your chemotherapy drugs. It looks as though you may have
been given wrong information.I have just read that
Xeloda is an oral drug that works similarly to 5-fluorouracil (F) and
is generally well tolerated. It is also advantageous that you can
take it in tablet form.It can be used either
alone or in combination with other drugs in patients whose cancer has
spread. I have also been reading about the common combinations used
in chemotherapy. They are as follows.FEC (5-fluorouracil,
epirubicin and cyclophosphamide) for 6 cycles.FECT (T=four cycles of
docetaxel (Taxotere)). 3 to 4 cycles of FEC followed by 3 to 4 cycles
of docetaxel.CAF (A=doxorubicin
(Adriamycin)) for 4 or 5 cycles.There are other
combinations and the oncologist will work out what is best for the
patient. It can get confusing because sometimes the letter used is
the one for the generic drug and sometimes it is for the brand name.I hope this helps.
Fond thoughts.

Hello everyone
I am just popping in to wish everyone a good weekend.
The thread has gone dead so I suppose everyone is busy doing Christmas shopping.
To Jackpot (Gill), I shall be thinking of you on Wednesday December 13th when you are due to finish chemo.
To apandy (Anne), I hope all goes well on December 18th when you start docetaxel (Taxotere). Keep looking forward to January 29th when chemo ends.
To bigleggy (Sandra), I was wondering what has happened to you.
To Hero1967, susaninicking (Susan), Carolben, adagio, linali (Lindsay), peterandliz, chatterbox2012 (Michael), InspiredbyDolce (Debra) and Jenn-uk, thinking of you all and hoping you will post.
Best wishes.

Hello everyone
I have been reading
some of the other threads and have detected a certain concern about
what chemotherapy drugs are being given and women comparing what
drugs they are being given to what other women are being given. We
have to remember we are all individuals and have to trust our
oncologists that the drugs that they have decided on are the ones
they think are best for us. There are a small group of drugs in
common use but they are used in different combinations and if anyone
has concerns about the choice, it seems to me common sense to talk to
their oncologist.The drugs belong to
different groups and are used in combination to have the maximum
effect.Here are some of the
groups.Cytoxan
(cyclophosphamide) belongs to the group known as alkylating agents.Efudex, Ffuf
(5fluoroucil) belongs to the group known as anti-metabolites,
methotrexate also belongs to this group.Taxotere (docetaxel),
Taxol (paclitaxel) belongs to the group known as antimitotics.Adriamycin
(doxorubicin) and I suppose Ellence (epirubicin) belong to the group
known as Topoisomerase inhibitors.Paraplatin (cisplatin,
carboplatin) these are platinum derivatives.All these drugs act in
different ways and if you want further information about how the drug
works and what the specific side effects are, you can find them on a
chart in the Merck Manual Home Health Handbook. The chart is very
easy to read.Yesterday I posted some
of the combinations patients are given. I posted:FEC
FECT
CAF
Others are:
Epi-CMF. This means
three or four cycles of epirubicin or epirubicin followed by three or
four cycles of CMF (cyclophosphamide, methotrexate, 5fluorouacil).ACT (Four cycles of
Adriamycin = doxorubicin, followed by T = four cycles of a taxane).
This could be Taxotere (docetaxel) or Taxol (paclitaxel).TAC a taxane combined
with Adriamycin = doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide for six cycles.AC four cycles of
Adriamycin (doxorubicin) and cyclophosphamide.Apparently there are
other combinations. If you want to learn more, a good book is
Understanding Breast Cancer by Professor Mike Dixon in the Family
Doctor series of books.I hope this will help
you. When you are told you need chemotherapy and are given the drugs
to be used, if I were you I would ask any questions of concern and
why a particular combination is being given. I had EC followed by a
taxane. This was epirubicin which I was told was difficult and known
as the red devil. I would imagine that doxorubicin is the same. I
have read that doxorubicin is difficult on the heart. As for the
taxane, I had docetaxel, Taxotere, and I asked my oncologist why I
was having docetaxel rather than paclitaxel, Taxol, and was told it
was because it was not as harsh on the heart.I hope everyone is
fine. It looks as though in the UK we are building up for some more
rough weather.Best wishes.

hi Sylvia
I was interested to read about the new care oncology clinic opening in London, it does give some hope to people who've run out of options with regards to regular treatment, what I don't understand is if treatment they give using everyday drugs could be so affective and are so low cost why arnt they used in regular cancer clinics in the first place were they could possibly prevent some people from getting to stage IV in the first place.
It's also good to know that treatment will be so low cost that it will be available to all and not just to people who can afford private health costs
Also the suggestions on how to keep dementia at bay is pretty much how to keep all illness at bay isn't it, my diet has slipped a bit of late as I'm finding it hard to stomach vegetables while my taste buds have deserted me
Are you looking forward to Xmas? I love Xmas and have got both my sons coming for Xmas dinner so really looking forward to that, I was interested to know that you prefer to donate to charity than give presents, I love the whole Xmas shopping thing and giving gifts, though I must admit there's probably more gifts under the tree for the dog than anyone else haha
Well three days left to my final chemo, I can't believe how fast it's gone, just hoping my bloods hold up and don't cause any delays, I've got my appt to get my tattoos done in clatterbridge on tha 7th jan but I havnt got a date when rads are going to start but I think it'll be about the third week in January and I've been told i will have three weeks of rads and two weeks of boosters so that will take to the end of feb, at least I can see an end to this now
Take care

Hello Jackpot (Gill)
It was nice to hear from you. I was
glad to read that your thought processes were exactly the same as
mine. If these cheap drugs are so effective one does wonder why they
are not used on a regular basis in regular cancer clinics. They are
probably not as nasty as the regular chemotherapy drugs. They do have
side effects needless to say.I do agree also that the suggestions to
keep dementia at bay will probably help to keep all degenerative
illnesses at bay.I can understand that you may not feel
like eating vegetables while having taste buds affected. All you can
do is do your best. You are nearly there now.I do hope all will go well with the
marking out on January 7th. I also had three weeks of
radiotherapy with boosters. When I asked about the boosters I was
told they would be integrated into the daily treatment and would not
be separate sessions after the normal radiotherapy. You might like to
check that out. The radiotherapy will go quickly because you have to
go in every day. Patients seem to find it easier than chemotherapy
but it is still harsh treatment on the body and you will need to
rest. You may find that radiotherapy makes you feel tired more easily
and your skin may look red and feel sore. I was fortunate not to have
any of these problems and found the most tiring was going to the
hospital each day. You should be advised about keeping the area dry
and what to use in the way of creams. I was told not to use Dove soap
during treatment because it has metal in it. I used aqueous cream.
You may get a slight cough because when radiotherapy is given to the
breast a small part of the lung underneath receives some of the
radiotherapy and can result in irritation causing a slight cough. I
hope everything will be explained to you before you receive
treatment.Let us know how things go on Wednesday.
I can understand that Christmas is an
exciting time for you and I do hope you will have a lovely time with
your two sons. It looks as though your dog is going to have a good
time.Fond thoughts.

hi Sylvia
I will be asking about the boosters being integrated in with the daily sessions, if this is the case it was not explained very well but I do hope your right as that will shorten it too three weeks instead of the five I'm expecting....
They did say to expect tiredness during radiotherapy but it shouldn't be as bad as chemo...after chemo I'm thinking radiotherapy is going to be a walk in the park, I've got a couple of tubes of aloe vera from holland and Barrett as I remember reading somewhere that it was the most effective cream to use during radiotherapy so hopefully that will do the trick and stop any burns
I didn't know that about dove soap containing metal, I used to use that till my friend who makes her own soap started sending me a regular supply,
They havnt mentioned yet anything about radiotherapy causing a cough I hope it doesn't as I've had a cough on and off through taxotere because they said it takes the lining off your throat and lungs and that hasn't been very pleasant so I could do without another one,
I'm really looking forward to Xmas now and to spending the day with my sons though I think the most excited right now is bailey (the dog) as he knows exactly were his gifts are under the tree and keeps checking on them, it's like having another child in the house....I do love him so much though he's my little rock right the way through this never leaving my side.....here's a pic of him
Take care

Hello Jackpot (Gill)
It was nice to hear from you. I do hope
by now you have finished your last session of chemotherapy and that
it means you will not be feeling too bad for Christmas to which I
know you are so looking forward.Let us know whether you have three
weeks or five weeks of radiotherapy.You are right to keep some tubes of
aloe vera for your radiotherapy as I am sure they will be useful.
There is nothing wrong with Dove soap and I find it is perhaps the
best soap on the market. I use the extra sensitive non-perfumed Dove
soap and really like it. It was just that for my three weeks of
radiotherapy I was told not to use it because of the metal.Thank you for the photograph of your
dog. I know there are a lot of animal lovers on the thread. I am so
glad to know that you have found your dog very supportive during your
cancer journey. They do say you can rely on your pets more than
humans. Dogs are very perceptive I think and can pick up on anything
going wrong with their owners. There is a school of thought that says
dogs can sniff out cancer in humans.I do hope you will be able to relax now
and enjoy yourself until your appointment on January 7th.
You will find it quite interesting seeing a prototype of the machine
that will be used during radiotherapy and witnessing how they map out
the tattoos in preparation for the treatment.sending you best wishes.

Hello everyone
I thought you might be interested in
the very detailed article that was in the Good Health section of the
Daily Mail on Tuesday December 17th by Chloe Lambert.The first heading starts off
It's not just rotting teeth and obesity
you're risking...From dementia to liver damage the real
toll of too much SUGAR.I was horrified to read that the
average British adult will consume the equivalent of 32 teaspoons of
sugar on Christmas Day alone, according to the British Heart
Foundation. Apparently the UK guidelines recommend that we should
have no more than 50 grms or around 10 teaspoons of sugar a day. Even
that figure horrified me and I would not want to be eating 10
teaspoons of sugar a day. All the breast cancer patients know that
cancer cells love sugar and that we should all stay away from it.The article states that sugar not only
rots your teeth but that in recent months the experts are saying that
it is SUGAR NOT FAT that we can blame for our obesity epidemic.I was interested to read that
scientists claim that sugar is not only harmful because of the
calories it contains but also because it alters crucial processes and
hormone levels in the body.According to Dr Mark Vanderpump who is
an endocrinologist at the Royal Free Hampstead NHS Trust in London,
most of us may be able to get away with an occasional sugar binge,
there is quite a large population in the UK who are on the borderline
of diabetes and a bit of pressure may tip them over the edge.There is mention of the very addictive
nature of sugar.One London cardiologist thinks sugar
should be regulated like alcohol because it shares four
characteristics. It is toxic, unavoidable, capable of abuse, has a
negative impact on society.This is perhaps the worst time to be
talking about how bad sugar is for us and then again it might be the
best time. We, on this thread, know sugar is bad for us and that
cancer cells thrive on it, so, at this festive time, go easy on the
mince pies, Christmas pudding, Christmas cake, brandy butter etc. I
feel lucky that I do not like any of these things. When I study the
aisles in my local supermarket, I wonder how we can fight the
prevalence of sugar in our society.There is a lot more in this article and
I shall post bits of it gradually but here are some of the main
headlines.Energy boost? No, you will feel sleepy.
It can trigger heart attacks.
You'll need the loo more often.
It may cause dementia.
Sugar is as bad as booze for livers.
It will make your gurgling tummy worse.
A sweet tooth will age you.
The link for this is:
Try to read this and tell me what you
think. The thread needs to be interactive to work.Thinking of you all.

I seem to have lost my e mail notifications to this thread, but just dropped in to catch up and say Merry Christmas ladies. I'm sad about some of the new struggles here, but also happy for those of you finishing JACKPOT!
I just finished a year and 4 days with BC on Monday when I had the stitches removed from my port removal operation. Relief. Happiness. Here's a picture of that moment with my beloved family doctor.
He kind of looks like he's stabbing me which maybe he has wanted to do at times!
Also, above is a photo of a calendar my friend made for me at the beginning of my chemo. I have LOVED this thing. It was so overwhelming to see it empty at first and now is such a thing of sticker beauty!
Hang in there everyone and happy holidays!

hi Sylvia
That's my final chemo done....so glad to put them behind me hopefully for good...everything went smoothly and the even put it through faster so I wasn't there that long either...both my lovely boys came with me today which was nice
The only downside to today was they have said ive got to have a brain scan after Xmas to rule out anything nasty after my collapse....I won't get the results till mid jan and they've told me I can't drive till I've had the results I don't think that's going to happen though I've got so much to do and I need my car to do it, I'm 99% certain it was my blood pressure.....I was interested to know is sugar that does more damage than fat and somewhat relieved because I'm finding it easier to resist sugar than fat but I have replaced fat with extra virgin olive oil were I can
Hi Anne just wondering how you got on with your first tax?
Thanx Susan....how happy do you look in that pic it's been a long old road hasn't it but its finally over...the sticker calendar is a great idea by the way
Sylvia here's a pic of me and my boys after finishing chemo
Take care

Hi Sylvia.
Yes I had the first Docetaxel today and all seems to be well. There are no obvious side effects at the moment but I have been quite thirsty and have a dry mouth. It's interesting that I don't have the zonked feeling I had after FEC, from the cyclophosphamide, I think. Also no sign of nausea.
I am off to bed now, having taken a Nytol to help me sleep. The next few days will be the real test, and seeing how I cope with all the steroids and other drugs, with their associated side effects.
I hope your last chemo went well, Jackpot. Wasn't it today, too?
Hugs and best wishes to all,
Anne x
Edited to add: sorry I just saw some later posts which I missed when I wrote this. Great photos Jackpot!

Hello Susan
It was so nice to hear
from you and to know that everything is now behind you. That is a
good way to start the New Year. I thought the kicking cancer calendar
was very beautiful and artistic. What a kind gesture that was.I was truly amazed when
I saw the photograph of you with your GP. He looks a really nice man.
I just cannot imagine that happening in my GP surgery. It is all very
formal and I do not think they like to be challenged or asked too
many questions. I think all they want to do is diagnose something and
dish out a pill. It is nothing like it used to be when you had a
regular family doctor who knew the family in detail and delivered the
children as well. It is all very impersonal and bureaucratic now.
Life seems to have gone that way in the UK.Please try to keep in
touch on the thread as we need cheerful encouraging people like you
to motivate us.Have a good Christmas
and a healthy, happy New Year.Fond thoughts.

Hello Jackpot (Gill)
Congratulations on
having successfully finished your chemotherapy journey. I was so glad
to know that everything went smoothly and glad to know that you had
the support of your two sons during the treatment.Try not to worry about
having to have a brain scan after Christmas. The one thing we all
know with this breast cancer is to deal with one thing at a time. It
is best for them to vigilant. I think it is also not unusual to pass
out during chemotherapy and a lot of the time it is due to low blood
pressure.I was glad to know you
had read the information about the bad effects of sugar. When I post
information it is always more interesting to have some feedback. We
all know or have read and been told that cancer cells feed on sugar,
so we have to be vigilant and just to try to do everything in
moderation. Cancer is a complicated disease and there are multiple
risk factors and probably multiple causes. We cannot really think
there is just one cause. There is no doubt that sugar is too much in
evidence in our lifestyle and that too much of it can result in being
overweight and obese, and that is another contributory factor to
cancer.We all know that we
need to eat in moderation, keep physically active, and a simple walk
is good enough, avoid smoking and smokers, drink alcohol in
moderation, if that is what you think is having a good time, and
avoid negative stress and negative people.As for fat, we need
some in our diet but again we need a mixture and in moderation.I loved the photographs
of you with your two sons. We need more of this on the thread.I hope you will have a
very good Christmas and be fighting fit for when you begin
radiotherapy.Keep posting, keep
happy, keep smiling.Fond thoughts.

Hello Anne
Nice to hear from you.
Congratulations on getting through your first dose of docetaxel
(Taxotere). Remember to drink as much water or warm drinks as you
can. It is so very important as you know. Keep your mouth moist.
Pineapple in its own juice is very refreshing. Let us know how you
get on over the next week and how the medications given for the first
few days affect you. Make sure you get plenty of rest.Fond thoughts.

I'm not feeling so good now as the aches and pains start to kick in. They started last night, the end of Day 4. I also feel rather weak and food has no taste. It's a pyjama day for me. I hope I'm ok for Xmas.

hi Sylvia
It's tax #6 day 4 so aches and pains kicking in now but hopeful for them easing for Xmas day and praying for taste buds but I can't see them returning in time
I've got both my boys coming for Xmas day, really looking forward to that but luckily I'm not doing the cooking, don't think I could cope with that,
I'm not too worried about the brain scan, I know they are probably being over cautious but it was something I wasn't even thinking about till it was mentioned in my onc appt and now im thinking about it...but I'm going to try and forget about it till the new year
Hope you have a lovely Xmas
Take care

hi anne
I hope your feeling a little better.... and the aches are easing from the first tax which is most definitely the worst....the pains of tax #2 #3 were only a third of the first.... don't hesitate to ask for extra pain meds if you need them...and watch the temp I had a lot of spikes with my temp on tax #1
It doesn't seem no time I was taking the same advice from people and now here's me dishing it out...that's how fast it goes....it'll be over before you know it
Enjoy your pj day I've had a few of them over the last few weeks
Have a lovely Xmas
Take care

It's encouraging to learn that the first tax is the worst. I don't think I could bear this getting worse. I've been taking my temperature regularly, and it is normal up to now. Have a great Christmas,

Hi
I would like to wish everyone a merry Christmas and a healthy New Year!
Jenn, I wish you the best. As far as I am aware, if you lack confidence in a doctor you can always ask to change. Janette told me that one can ask for your case to be referred to the Royal Marsden, if only for an opinion rather than having to go and see them.

Hello apandy (Anne)
I was so sorry to read
that you are not feeling so good and that you have started to have
problems with aches and pains.I do hope they will
improve soon and that you will be able to enjoy Christmas. Everyone
seems to say that the first week after chemotherapy is the worst and
in addition you have started on a new drug, Taxotere. It is strange
how everyone reacts differently to these drugs. Some find that it is
epirubicin (Ellence) or doxorubicin (Adriamycin) that are the most
difficult and others find the taxanes, docetaxel (Taxotere) or
paclitaxel (Taxol) are the most challenging. All we can do is to take
anything on offer that helps to alleviate side effects. I know that
my friend who lives in this complex had a further dose of
chemotherapy on December 18th and she has been feeling off
colour as well. She is being treated for metastases to the spine and
is on various chemotherapy drugs. She is not TNBC and is HER2+. She
is feeling slightly better today and well enough to go to relatives
for Christmas.It is definitely true
that feeling weak goes with the treatment and somehow we have to get
through it. The metallic taste you get is very unpleasant. I found
mashed potatoes very welcome when I had the metallic taste. You are
right to relax in pyjamas. Try to rest and sleep as much as you can
and keep drinking water or decaffeinated hot drinks.Thinking of you, Anne
and wishing you well. Hang on to the date of January 29th
when your chemotherapy journey will come to an end.Fond thoughts.

Hello Jackpot (Gill)
Hang in there and do
your best to deal with the aches and pains. Are you taking anything
for these? It looks as though you and Anne are suffering from the
same side effects. Let us hope things will be better by Christmas
Day, which will mark a week since the chemotherapy treatment. I hope
the taste buds will have improved by Christmas. I think the metallic
taste that seems to be common comes and goes. Eat or drink anything
that refreshes the mouth.It will be nice for you
to have Christmas dinner cooked for you. It is probably not something
you would want to be doing this year. I found that during
chemotherapy I did not like most smells, especially cooking smells.What is happening with
your niece at the moment?The weather here is
absolutely awful with high winds and pelting rain. It is definitely a
time for staying indoors. It is supposed to be calm again for
Christmas Day, but this weather is really messing up people's travel
arrangements. My brother who lives in Exmouth is driving as I type to
the home of one of his daughters in Berkshire. It is a long drive and
I shall be glad to know that he has arrived safely.I have recently found
out that a cousin of mine, living in France, died last week of motor
neurone disease. That is one awful disease that destroys all your
quality of life.Enjoy Christmas with
your two boys.Fond thoughts.

Hello jenn-uk (Jenn)
I was sorry to hear
that you were having surgery today to find and remove the new tumour.
We are all thinking of you and hoping all will go well and that you
will be back home for Christmas and that you can put the surgery
behind you.I do hope you will have
a good path report and that you will get the post surgery that you
need and that will be most beneficial to you.I was glad to know that
you trust your surgeon as that is so important. You need to know you
are in good hands. The oncologist seems to be an issue, especially if
you feel you cannot trust him/her.I think all of us who
have gone through treatment or are going through treatment can really
sympathise with how you feel about this disease and I am sure we all
get sick and tired of it. We would all want to be able to put it
behind us and be confident that we have gone through the gruelling
treatment, got rid of it all and can forget it. Unfortunately we all
know that with cancer this cannot be done, because it can always rear
its ugly head again. we can get on with a more or less normal life
but just keep a watch on our bodies for anything that is abnormal for
us.I can imagine how
tiring it must be to have to redo everything over again, but all the
women on these threads doing just that shows us that we can do
whatever we have to do, and keep claiming back a normal life.We all know how wearing
chemotherapy is, especially when it has to be done a second time, but
the women on these threads prove that it can be done. At least the
second time round you know what to expect.You must fight to get
chemotherapy if it is going to help and I cannot understand your
oncologist's attitude to this. If it were me, I think I would be
insisting on chemotherapy and radiotherapy to improve the odds of the
cancer not coming back.I agree with Michael
about getting more advice and a second opinion from a hospital such
as the Royal Marsden.Wishing you a speedy
recovery and a good Christmas and a healthy, happy New Year.Fond thoughts.

hi Sylvia
The aches and pains seem to be easing a little today..I've been taking co-codemol and ibruprofen and they have been helping...I seem to be able to taste a little today as well so that good,
My Neice is waiting to have her stem cells removed and then have high dose chemo whilst she remains in isolation for four weeks, I believe this is happening on January 2nd all being well
Sorry to hear the weathers bad there, it's wet but calm here in liverpool so not to bad, going out shortly to get a few last minute bits....
I hope your brother arrives safely at his daughters home, it certainly doesn't sound like weather to be driving in and I'm sorry to hear about your cousin passing from motor neurone disease that's such a shame right before Xmas
Take care

Hello Gill
I was glad to know the
aches and pains are easing today. It is useful to know you are taking
co-codemol and ibuprofen. They are supposed to be very effective. It
is really good news that your taste buds are a bit better today as
well.I do hope all will go
well with your niece on January 2nd. It must be so hard
waiting for all this to happen.It is still raining
here and the wind is relentless. I shall be so glad when it returns
to calm.Thank you for your kind
words about my cousin.Fond thoughts.
