Things started rolling around 7:30 p.m. tonight. To kick off this evening’s FEC (Fluorouracil, Epirubicin and Cyclophosphamide) treatment, I started with Ativan – taken orally. This was given to help me relax and is especially helpful in calming those who become anxious about possible nausea from chemo drugs. I actually wasn’t feeling anxious about potential nausea, but given that I don’t know what will actually happen tonight, I didn’t resist. I admit, I’m yawning periodically, but I’m more inclined to believe that this is due to coming down after a very busy week at work rather than feeling tired from the drug.
