Chemo Update
Hi girls,
Had my first cycle of TAC yesterday and so far so good. We were there for about 6 hrs as the first treatment can often take longer, plus I am part of a clinical trial so they need to take...
Hi leonie, you poor thing, no, i didn't have the "mitten" treatment, I've actually never heard of it! I just had to suck an icy pole whilst they delivered one of the drugs!
Well i spoke too soon when I said I didn't feel too bad! The constipation got worse, I tried Lactulose, then they told me to use microlax, that didn't work so then I had to drink some other stuff made up from a sachet and finally that got me moving! But today I feel like I have the flu, I am aching all over, tired, weepy, and yes, like you food tastes different! I ate some dried fruit and it was so salty!! I just keep trying to remind myself that it is "all for a reason" and we have to endure this to get better!
Take care my friend, will write more when I am feeling better xx
