1 st chemo in the morning

You go girl !
Best wishes xx

Woo hoo. 

Well done!

So far so good   All done and heading home  

All the best for your treatment @Melc503 - let us know how you go. x

Good luck @Melc503  I too found it hard to concentrate on anything - I was always prepared with books, podcasts, etc but rarely bothered much.  Make sure that you know who and how to contact if the meds they send you home with are not sufficient.  I went for days after the first one, needlessly feeling shocking because I didn't think that I could do anything about it on the weekend, when a phone call could have sorted it.  

@Melc503 good luck for tomorrow. 

Hydrate now!

Hey Mel. You'll be right. It's surprisingly mundane in most cases. Company is good if that's what you want. It can get pretty boring, it's a terrible time soak. I always went with a bag of magazines, an iPad, a water bottle, and sundry other bibs and bobs but all I ever did was faff about on my phone messaging friends. I had an allergic reaction to one of the drugs so they dosed me up to eyeballs with Phenergan which made me very sleepy. I dozed and slept away most of my chemo! Like @Sarnicad I had a massive sob the first time so tissues are good tip. If you're doing the cold cap take a beanie to go home with. Takes a few hours to warm up again. If you're anything like me you'll find chatting to the nurses quite interesting and entertaining. All the very best of luck, hope it goes smoothly, and keep your eyes on the prize: a cancer free life. Big hug, K xox

Good luck. I hope it isn't too bad. Waiting to see oncologist to start my plan. I was told 4 to 6 cycles. Don't know if thats common. Think of the finish line 💖
