Shortage on Chemo Drugs

I mentioned the other day there is a shortage of one of my chemotherapy drugs.  Here is the story from ABC News.

It's a long article, but for someone like myself, who was told Taxol would be part of my treatment plan, it was worth reading, and distressing, to say the least.  There is a video and a long article.  Both are worth watching/reading if you're interested.

Still feeling rough.  Very nauseated and fatigued.  A little down.  All a normal part of the process, I'm sure.
