Just went in on Monday for my second chemotherapy. I'm newly diagnosed, and started with carboplatin and taxotere in the hope that I could get my eggs harvested and frozen before round 2 three weeks later. The ovarian stimulation didn't work with the chemo on board, and honestly I'm not that torn up about it. Now I've been switched to doxorubicin and carboplatin, however my nurse dropped the news on me that my onc wants to switch to every 4 weeks as the doxo hangs out longer. I don't know how I feel about this. Chemo sucks, but I've been handling it pretty well so far, having the energy for light exercise, returning to work, and maintaining a good appetite. I felt ready for round 2 after 2 weeks. Obviously I don't fully know how the doxo affects me yet, but 4 weeks?? Is this typical? Waiting around while feeling well after #1 gave me a lot of anxiety, plus this is going to drag out my total chemo duration.
Any words of advice? I see my onc early next week and plan to discuss it more in depth then.
