Suggestions to stay well during chemo xx

A lot of my advice has already been said...  It's really important to try to get exercise during chemo even if all this means is a slow shuffle down the driveway.  If you can access an oncology rehab gym, all the better (some oncology clinics have arrangements with these gyms) - good for your general health and your recovery.  Be kind to yourself - you may not have the energy to fit in the commitments that you have in the past.  Don't be scared to take necessary medications and if what you have doesn't work, ask for something better - straight away.  Keep a log of how you're feeling each day including things like meds taken, temperature, blood pressure (if you have a machine at home).  This will give you a record to monitor your pattern and also give the oncologist accurate information.  I use to leave mine on the bench so I would remember to write things down.  And don't worry too much about the "quality" of what you eat if you're struggling with food - if you can eat it, it's fine.  It's more important to try to maintain a weight.
