@colleenyoung Thanks for posting those links, they are helpful and mostly it's good to know I'm not alone! I had by first session of gemcitabine and docetaxel last week, and it went so much easier than I expected. Still not fun, but I felt that I was in good hands. Was a little tired for a few days. My next treatment is tomorrow (Nov. 5) and I hope it goes as well, although from reading other people's stories I understand that the cumulative effects might be rough. But I'm positive and hopeful and grateful that I have a good doctor and great nurses!
