Chemo Day 1

Hi everyone. 
I thought i would give you a heads up about my chemo today. Firstly i did kick its butt after the 1st hour.  The 1st hour was the hardest as i chose the cold cap. I had snug warm blankets but oh my head killed. Had Panadol and then had some drug adavan oj I cannot remember. Once i had that i was fine. Went to the toilet alot with all the fluids.  At home im ok. Headache and a bit nauseas. 
Love to you all xx

    I think arriving for the first one is the scariest, because you have no idea what it's all going to be like. Glad the first one is done with for you, and that you coped ok with the cold cap.
    Now, rest up, take the drugs you've been given, especialy the anti nausea ones, even if you think you're ok. If you feel unwell at all, or not sure, ring the cancer centre and ask
    Take care
