Hi Sal,
Great to see you going in with a game plan. Despite the horror stories that you will be told by some not terribly helpful people, including complete strangers ( think being pregnant) a good many of us sail through treatment with minimal, or very manageable side effects.
Yes, there are a few Calamity Jane's here ***guilty eye roll*** but the benefit of that is we have a really good idea about what might, or probably won't, help when you are pissed off, blocked up or when any of the other myriad weirdo things associated with chemo are an issue.
The best advice anyone gets is to be kind to yourself. Delegate stuff, rest when you can and never feel like you have failed if things don't go as you have planned. It's a big job, this cancer stuff, in the end we muddle through somehow. Marg xxx
