Chemo # 2
So this morning I am up early, breakfast with steroids, off to the pathology to have blood test, grocery shopping to stock up for a week or so. Yes its the day before chemo.
A doctor said to me las...
Thanks for sharing. That is a good run-down. I think the 'sometimes friends let you down' is a good one to keep in mind. Whilst it might hurt at the time, the reality is that some of the reactions of family and friends will not be what you expect.
I've felt a lot of enthusiasm at the beginning, that has tapered off as chemo goes on. And also friends that say they'll do things...and then don't.
While I found the first chemo hard (mainly the concerns over what the side effects would be)....I also think that the last half of the treatments has been also hard. I feel like I've gotten into a routine for the chemo treatments, but the later ones have been more of a mental battle.
Good luck with the rest of your treatment.
