1st Chemo down
Had my first chemo a week ago today... it was and wasn't what I expected. Very icky tummy (no vomits tho) and a kind of reflux, and a few other effects, but on the whole, I survived!! The weird one...
Thanks everyone, for your thoughts!! This forum, and it's beautiful ladies, give me so much hope and inspiration xx
I'm feeling like a bit of a scardy-cat about my next chemo tho, not the side effects, but actually the first time a needle will go into my portacath (the line was already in there from surgery on the first round). Mental note of me running for the hills, screaming, with my arms flailing wildly in the air.... LOL... I am going to buy shares in Emula cream/patches I think....
AND, Tracey, I hope you feel more than just useful, I think you're amazing, and you have given me so much support, information... and just plain out caring, thank you!
