Hello
I am new to this site.

Welcome from me too:)I found the tiredness the worst with the chemo.I had my last chemo last Monday,and if I could tell you one thing that helped me the most,it is that walking every day is so important.My oncologist kept on telling me this,and I walked every single day.Even on those few days when your legs feel like lead,just do a bit.It actually alleviates the fatigue.Your emotions will continue to be all over the place while you are on chemo.I am sure it's a combination of what you are dealing with,and the chemo itself.When you feel like crying,just do it.Dont try to make sense of it.As Deanne said,eating what you feel like,and when you feel like it,really does help with that nauseous feeling that you can get sometimes.My worst days after chemo were days 5 to about 10,then things started to improve again.Its great to have good support Lisa,and important to lean on these people and take time when you need it,just for YOU:) I hope you have a peaceful Christmas,and you will be through chemo and on to the next step before you know it!
