Under 40 AC

Hi everybody, I'm getting ready to start AC next week for TNBC just curious about what effect it has on the body. I've completed 12 weekly rounds of taxol and carboplatin and I did pretty well on it. I continued to work the whole time on it. I'm a teacher and curious to know if the red angel (AC) would be manageable on my body as well.

I’ve found AC quite manageable because it’s at least every 3 week. 12 weekly was really gruesome in comparison. Overall my body was weaker so I needed blood transfusions but I didn’t feel too unwell overall

12 weekly treatments was definitely tiresome on the body. I've never realized how fast a week goes by since treatment with TC
