I finished my fourth chemo of the AC on Friday. Now I am off to taxol in two weeks. I noticed yesterday when I got home my period is starting back up again for the second time in a row. Should I be worried about this. My red blood cell count is already getting to the low point. The last time I had my period that lasted for a good 7 to 10 days. This seems always happen right after I finish my chemo. I last chemo definitely wanted to go out with a bang. The last plunge of the red Devil gave me major chemo brain for about 10 minutes. I felt really lightheaded and basically had to sit there for 10 minutes until I was able and off to go home.. I'm so glad that part is over. I hope Taxol is a least a little bit easier.
