Hi Spiv1803
I was hospitalised for my second and fourth rounds of AC and found it really helpful. I was able to get more fluids and rest without my family having to tip toe around me. It was my oncologist that suggested it as he said he could give more support as an inpatient and he was right. If you are having trouble with the side effects of treatment then you are definitely not being precious. At the end of the day it's about getting through your treatment in the best shape that you can and if that includes a short stay in hospital then why not. Good luck with round 3. I hope your side effects can be better controlled.
