        I feel the same way, I wanted to make sure I did everything I could so that if I lost the fight, I knew it was not for lack of trying. I'm only 20 years old, so hopefully that works to my advantage.
        Did you notice that on your weekends you had more energy or were you still just as heavily effected as if it was during the week when you were getting the IV.

              Tricia,

              Thank you for the advice! I was just wondering how you decided what time of day you did your injections? Do they suggest at night? I was going into my fourth year of university this year but got it deffered as suggested by my oncologist, so I don't have much commitment to anything except my bed this year.
              I was hoping to try to keep a bit of a social life though, but I guess going to bed by 7 limits things quite a bit lol
