Carol,

It depends on which drugs you take. I had Ovarian cancer in 2004, and I took Taxol and Carboplatin. My side effects of those two drugs were: loss of hair, neuropathy in both hands and feet (The tingling feeling), nausea, muscle aches, joint pain, and swelling. I would have those side effects for about 5 days after chemo. (Except for the neuropathy, which I ended up struggling with as a permanent side effect.)

Some good news: when you lose your hair, you lose it EVERYWHERE! Which meant NO SHAVING! YAY!

Carol, good luck-- be strong-- a great attitude will carry you far. ((hugs))

Holly
