I’ve actually just come home from hospital for the second time with acute diverticulitis. It presented itself after my first chemo 6 weeks ago and hen again after my second cycle even though I had a reduced dose! It really has been awful because the pain was just not manageable at home so hospital, low residue diet, IV antibiotics and morphine for the excruciating pain. Now home again and on strict diet and recovery instructions from my partner as well. No weeding, no housework etc, just recovery. Was I. The verge of stopping chemo but we all decided yesterday to give it another go in 2 weeks time with another 10% dose reduction if I am well enough!!! I really want to get 2 more cycles in as it gives me some better numbers!!! Anyone else had these types of hiccups??? Mary
