Anyone had AC-T chemo combination for breast cancer?

The dex is to help with side effects. I had that too, but I think the compazine which was for nausea but is a tranquilizer counterbalanced the effects, at least for a while. I am thinking of you as you navigate this treatment.
How are you feeling now? Sleeping? Eating well?

Thank you for asking, @auntieoakley . I cannot sleep and it is very frustrating. I have not slept well since starting chemo almost a month ago. My doctor suggested Benedryl, but it isn't helping. I've tried magnesium supplements, melatonin, and combination of Benedryl, melatonin, and magnesium. I am waiting for a reply from the doctor's office as I write this.
I envy those who are able to sleep through the nausea. I honestly have to ask if chemotherapy is even worth the side effects and risks.
