Hi Jessica I have just finished my second lot of chemo the first was 20 years ago...yes, nothing for 20 years then more recently in the past 2 years I have had another 2 cancers one in each breast I think with the first lot of chemo I just dealt with it emotionally as best I could as I can't remember having the support that is around today...or we weren't informed of it !!. I finished my 2nd lot of chemo (for my third bc) in July I did have 1 really bad instance where I was hospitalised for a week. After that my oncologist decreased my chemo dosage and I was fine. I also think that keeping yourself active has a lot to do with your mental attitude. I do social dancing & am happy to say that apart from the 2 weeks after my surgery I was back dancing...maybe not staying on the floor as long as I used to but atleast I loved getting out there having fun. I hope this is of some help
