I'm new here

Hi sue, 

I'm the same but double positive. I thought in the beginning it was just going to be radiotherapy but sadly not, 6 sessions of chemo and im half way through. How to cope??? That is the biggest question as everyone is different. Before my first chemo I got organised and read a lot about nausea and how to reduce the effects, also got lots of fruit and veg. I also thought if I had chemo on Friday I'd be good for work on Monday but that was not the case, generally to takes me 5 days to 'come good' and then after its a real roller coaster of emotions. I highly recommend seeing a counsellor, I've been going since I was diagnosed and I don't know how I would have coped without her, she's amazing. Also, I meditate to relax which helps most times.

Here's to the good fight.
