Nicole, I got really bad inflammation with taxotere, which is in the same family. It was quite nasty and went on, on and off, for a while even after the last chemo. Tell your onc. After the first bout, they gave me an extra day of steroids with the next treatments and that helped some. Once chemo was all done, I did about ten days of anti-inflammatories to get it down.

Hour trail hike/run, more of a hike because I took the dog with me and she's not so fast. My dog lives to go on a walk, and it's hard to resist her sweet face begging to go with me. I'll go faster another day.
pat Great to have found a lovely new outfit! Mary woohooo - 9 miles!! marian Hope that you're feeling better and can get out for that walk. LilacBlue Your weather is heading our way - after being teased for a few days of spring, snow is forecasted on Wednesday.

Wow, I envy you girls who are able to run multiple miles. On Sunday I went for two walks, one about a mile, two about a mile and a half. I felt absolutely awful when I got home. My legs, joints, muscles were in pain. I took 2 ibuprofin and just waited for them to kick in. I realized this morning I can't live like this. I did 2 miles on my treadmill and felt MUCH better. No leg pain, feeling energized instead of fatigued. I guess in the end I can't rely on my MO to fix my problems. Have to rely on yourself.

Waitingforthenextstep ~ I have notable leg pain from Taxol and that is why I choose the Elliptical when I go to the gym. I think the continuous motion/minimal impact is helpful. If the treadmill works for you then you are on your way to pain free exercise!!!

Just do what you can during chemo; it will give you a good base to jump back from once you're done.

Balsie before my diagnosis I was going for acupuncture because my body just "didn't feel right" I really like it, my BFF is coming from Australia next week and she practices Reiki I'm looking forward to getting some treatments from her.
