Dread of Chemo
Hello everyone, so glad to join your group with my first post. I live in
Cairns and was diagnosed in Nov with ER+ PR+ HER2- and underwent
lumpectomy for 4.5cm tumor and removed 7 lymph nodes. Outcom...
All the best for today. It's a big thing but you'll be fine. I stayed with my sister for a week after my first chemo ( I was single at the time) so I don't recommend being alone. The worst thing I recall was terrible heartburn. My tongue and mouth was completely white and furry. Like thrush. A quick trip to the chemist for some Zantac fixed it immediately. It only happened on the first chemo after that I went home by myself and was fine. I'd go back to work one or two days after each chemo. Xx
