Ok, this may sound stupid, but can you get addicted to the chemo drugs like you can to any other drug? I just finished up round 12 (yippee!) and am waiting to get my scans done next week in hopes of a possible liver resection (could use your prayers! ) Anyway, during the last three or four treatments I have felt pretty good. My side effects have been very minimal except for the neuroapathy which made me stop the oxi after round 10. But the two or three days before I get my treatments I break into a fever and chills and body aches (feels as if I have the flu). My dad said I reminded him of somebody that was having withdrawls from coccaine or something!! EEK! Once I have my treatment I actually feel fine! Weird huh? Anyway, just wondering if anyone else has experienced this or if I am just being paranoid. I don't want to become a chemo junkie and have to have my "fix" for life!
