Dear jellis,
I too am sorry for your recent diagnosis, and your other health issues.
I hope everything goes as well as possible. It's daunting, everything that is ahead of you for now.
I've just finished similar Chemo, and 5 weeks Radiotherapy. After Mastectomy with Axillary clearance.
I very much agree with Afraser. It's different for everyone. But know some people are 'lucky' with how they are affected.
My experience with Chemo was very manageable. No nausea, occasional fatigue. Long list of side effects that were manageable and not too serious.
No skin reaction with Radiotherapy, used Mepitel.
Thinking of you.
