Samantha, you did such a great job at describing your chemo drug treatment. Everything you said was so true and descriptive. I am a retired nurse so I thought I knew what to expect. I have administered chemo to patients. It was a lot different receiving it. Thank you for being honest about your experience. People can relate to you.
I am a 20 year breast cancer survivor👌Chemotherapy was hell but you do survive. Thank you for sharing, you put yourself out there. It is your body, your choice. Admire your decision to stop your meds. Quality of life is important. Also Your hubby’s life with you.
Hi 👋 Samantha. Our chemo experiences are very similar. Even 8 years later the side effects are just awful. I too have a port. I’ve been on Xeloda and Tukysa for a little over a year now. The hand and foot syndrome is awful 😞 it doesn’t matter how much Aquaphor or any other kind of creams I use, it’s still so dry and cracked. Very painful. I admire your decision to stop chemo. I get chemo every 3 weeks and of course PET Scans etc. Like you said everyone is different. I’m very happy for you and Gray in your new home and state. Wishing you all the blessings in the world. 🙏🏼🌹🙂
Omg, I can totally relate to “feeling out of it”. I’m currently on Xeloda and feel like I have brain fog all of the time. That’s been the worst part for me. Other than the fatigue.
I hope your fatigue improves! Be gentle with yourself though. We try to keep on functioning like we did before chemo but it’s ok to slow down and listen to the body.
I humbly appreciate your kind gesture Dr.Auchi on TH-cam channel, You was able to help me with my health issues, the breast cancer disease was something the world thought has no cure but I’m happy to say today that I’ve been cured with your herbs and I’m glad to have you as my doctor…th-cam.com/channels/6tA16t1IlKx1bY93lc2rcg.html 🌹🌹
You explaining your experience with chemo triggered 15 year old memories of when my Nana went through it a 2nd or 3rd time, the biggest thing she complained about was her heightened smell, how easily she got cold and the fatigue. This was specially from my view, the last time I saw her that "goodbye" was different because she knew she wouldn't see us again but we didn't. All I have to say is don't leave your children in the dark about someone close to them's health, if they're going to die be honest because in my case I went into emotional shock when I was told she passed. I full on dissociated and depersonalized afterwards, everything was a blur up until her wake because I discovered then and there I had a phobia of dead bodies so I flip shit seeing one. It was the most bizarre feeling and I'll be honest; after awhile I was actually more scared of the body than sad that she even died.
I’ve never had chemo, but I’ve had tons of ports and lines for IV nutrition and meds because of intestinal failure. I had a nurse actually argue with me about whether the needle was in the right place, and she put so much saline and heparin into the tissue of my chest. We woke up and there was blood all over the bed and the worst bruise ever. Had to go to IR and have it removed. The worst part of central lines is the worry of sepsis all the time, I have a Hickman now, which they also use with chemo. When I get IV Benadryl I get tired, but also lose my ability to focus. I once lost my train of thought and started talking about egg rolls! Love your vids!

Thank you. I am a breast cancer survivor myself (10years out, stage 4). I had radiation and chemo , Taxotere, Doxataxin, and Herceptin) , plus a port. Hope you are doing well.
Samantha did they have you get Lapelga injections the day after chemo to boost your white blood cell count? Maybe they only so this in Canada?? I did after each session and it caused fevers and horrible tail bone/ back spasms and bone pain. I could not sit for hours and had to keep walking around. It was as bad as the chemo. Great to see your cat is adjusting well and is full of beans! Awesome info here Samantha that will help prepare others so well and fun to watch you make cookies while talking about this serious stuff! I had many of the same side effects as you from Taxol and Cyclophosphamide (sp?) Luckily my neuropathy in my toes is gone (after about a year since chemo). Hope your clears up completely!
I got Neulasta injections after AC chemo for that reason. I assume it is a similar drug. It caused bone pain for me too. I was told to take Claritin for bone pain so I always did, but I’m not sure if it worked or not. Sorry about the rough side effects you had but I’m glad your neuropathy is completely gone!

i got the metal taste from my chemo nothing tasted like it should except sweets. even water tasted bad. I was so glad when food tasted good again. Glad you are doing so well and those cookies look really yummy.LOL Take care and enjoy Alaska
At 10 mins 19 seconds okay yeah. What the heck I just like why are my nurses having protected body suits while I get NOTHING and the chemo I just never understood that lol
Oof sorry you’re dealing with that. Does not sound fun. I think it took about a year and a half after finishing chemo before mine completely went away, but mine was not very severe

Oh the nails ummm not only did my nails stop growing but they would break and also somehow one of the chemo side effects was that my nails turned like brown like black almost it was so weird
I forgot to mention this but some people have them completely fall off! Mine got really brown and gross at the end but I never had them come completely off
Now I had ALL acute lymphoblastic leukemia and so I had all types of chemo obviously not radiation but what made my treatment worse was my steroids I had steroids every first five days of the month and it would “help” me with energy but it was shock my pancreas not allowing me to produce insulin which sucked
Omg lol I am going to share this video to all my friends because they don’t understand what a port is and omg so I had chemo yesterday and my nurse missed my port two times yesterday and I was just like “omg can you stop stabbing me??!?!?”
I have breast cancer and i had IV quimoterapy for 6 months. I just finished on 11 july 🙏 it was horrible. So many fadigue, and pain on my body, and all my skyn so so dry even my intemate aereas. It really gets me down.

It really depends on the person, but I think a lot of times it's a gradual transition. It's hard for me to say since I started radiation after chemo and then other medication which can also affect it
I'm taking antipsychotic medication that raises my prolactin levels and affects my breast. I'm hoping that I won't get breast cancer from it in the long run. My DNA test says I have a few chance of getting breast cancer so I guess that's hope.
I wish that I had made videos of my treatments. YOur videos are great. I got 4 rounds of A/C chemo plus nuelatsa followed by 12 weekly rounds of taxol. Ugh... I could not get that port out fast enough. My body tried to reject it the whole time it was in. Thank goodness for that numbing gel that I could put on the port area an hour before the treatments. Oh and those pre chemo cocktails too. The taxol gave me horrid neuropathy in both my feet, it is permanent. :( Oh ya the direct push of the red devil. And the red pee. I only had one fingernail that had a issue it was my right thumb nail, I put some water proof tape over the end of the nail and it kept it from getting any worse. Wow I still have the heat and cold sensitivities too it is permanent in my body since chemo.

Thank you! I hope that the chemo and scans continue to go ok and that you find some relief for the pain
Thanks for all the detail, super informative. Take care ❤
So good to see you.. and I always enjoy your videos. I know you're enjoying Alaska! Be well. 🌿🐬
Thank you! We love it in Alaska :)
Omg, I can totally relate to “feeling out of it”. I’m currently on Xeloda and feel like I have brain fog all of the time. That’s been the worst part for me. Other than the fatigue.
Definitely most tired I’ve ever been and made me feel absolutely horrible. Hope the rest of your treatment goes ok
I hope your fatigue improves! Be gentle with yourself though.

How r u feeling now? With foggy brain

I think the only thing that tasted pretty normal to me was bread haha. Thank you!
At 10 mins 19 seconds okay yeah. What the heck I just like why are my nurses having protected body suits while I get NOTHING and the chemo I just never understood that lol
Lol right? But they do give it to others way more than I get it myself so it’s good they are protected
Neuropathy is one of those where I can still feel it on my feet and hands I would feel pain and so it would not allow my muscles not move
Oof sorry you’re dealing with that. Does not sound fun. I think it took about a year and a half after finishing chemo before mine completely went away, but mine was not very severe
Take B12 it really helps

Hi samantha how long does it take to feel in ur self my brain is so foggy after the co.pletion of chemo its been 3 weeks now
It really depends on the person, but I think a lot of times it's a gradual transition. It's hard for me to say since I started radiation after chemo and then other medication which can also affect it
OMG! I thought I was just weird in getting the restless legs with IV Benadryl!
No it’s totally a thing!
I'm taking antipsychotic medication that raises my prolactin levels and affects my breast. I'm hoping that I won't get breast cancer from it in the long run. My DNA test says I have a few chance of getting breast cancer so I guess that's hope.
If you are low risk, that’s a good sign :)
@@SamanthaL I'm hoping and praying that I will never have it since anything can happen. 💕 But yeah I'll take the good sign. 🙂
I wish that I had made videos of my treatments. YOur videos are great. I got 4 rounds of A/C chemo plus nuelatsa followed by 12 weekly rounds of taxol. Ugh...

my dad just got a very rare heart mass cancer and was curious how it felt so i came here
Hope chemo helps your dad!

Thank you!
