what to take to chemo treatments?
Ok so here is my question, I've had my mastectomy (healing well, thankyou), and now I'm about to start Chemo shortly, what do I take with me on the day? I've seen suggestions for 'chemo packs' and so...
Hi @Locksley, yeah it's a club I could have done without joining! I haven't heard of the ice water and icepacks for PN before. I'm not going to use the coldcap because I get migraines and they are sometimes triggered by getting really cold. Having my head at 3 degrees for hours on end sounds like torcher to me. Think I can do the hands and feet though.
I should be getting a port in this week, just waiting for a call from the surgeon as I start Chemo on the 24th. Definitely will be taking a soft cuddly blanket.
Thanks for the tips :)
