GETTING STARTED
Hi Ladies,
Had my visit to the oncologist today, have to start Chemo on Wednesday 25/08/15, so overwhelmed, anxious, scared of what to expect, I know this is the next step in my journey to wellness...

Hi Robyn, I always took a book, a magazine, my diary and phone, extra water and snacks - I always wanted to graze on something. I ended up taking a bag of stuff just in case I might want to do something but in general the magazines were read and books not so much.
The infusion is cold so you do cool down. There will be blankets on offer but I usually took a nice big scarf as well. I usually ended up napping which was fine.
Good luck. the time will fly by and after the first time it won't be so scary. The nurses are amazing and they will look after you.
