Hi @riss81 - sorry to see you join our 'exclusive' club .... but ask away .... any query you have, we'll do our best to answer it for you xx
Have you joined the Triple Negative private group? You can ask questions there with 100% privacy .....
Everyone's chemo journey is different - but I'd suggest that you keep a written diary of your experiences ..... Sometimes you'll feel a tad 'whacked' a few days after your chemo sessions - you should notice a 'pattern' after a few sessions. xx Drink plenty of water after each session - and if you are up to it, keep up some limited exercise too. It would be a good idea to wear a mask when/if people visit you, just in case. There is a lot of covid going around again now & you don't want to catch it! xx.
Your Onc & the Onc nurses will be able to tell you when you are 'most susceptible' to catching bugs ......
I hope you have a strong friend & family network to help you get thru this treatment .....
take care & all the best xx
