First Chemo yesterday

Had a lumpectomy and sentinel node removed, Just had first of four chemo session yesterday, all went well no reaction, sent home with steroids and anti nausea tablets, feeling ok today a bit of a headache when I woke up but gone now after drinking so much fluids.  Hope the rest of the time's like this but I know it won't be, this feels like the calm before the storm so to speak.

  • Hi:) For me, the tiredness started on about day 5 and began to ease on day 10. I had Docetaxel and found it not too bad:) Stay on here if u need advice about side effects. Cheers Robyn xxx

  • Hi Annemarie,

    some people are lucky enough to get away with mild discomfort so I will keep my fingers crossed that you are one of the lucky few.  Good luck. Karen xox
