Treatment 1 was a horror - I had every side effect possible - thrush, bad mouth sores,
yeast infection, hives, constipation, neutropenic fever (WBC <0.1 on day 12 post treatment), throat infection, then diarrhea because of the antibiotics for the fever, etc. For treatment 2, my dose of both chemo drugs was reduced by 15% (I don't know the actual dose, but was given the typcial dose for treatment 1). I was also given an injection of Neulasta for the WBCs the day after treatment 2.
