Chemotherapy tips
I was diagnosed three weeks ago with two lumps in my right breast and had a lumpectomy last week. I was told this would be followed by just radiation but as it turns out I now have to have chemo too. ...
It's either constipation or diarrhea! Neither is good, so finding out what keeps you on the straight and narrow as soon as possible is a big plus. It may change if you change chemotherapies too. I got myself very organised on A/C only to find it didn't work on Taxol. If you take anti-nausea medication, it can add to constipation. I was lucky, didn't have nausea and my oncologist agreed to take me off the obligatory anti-nausea meds every week on Taxol. That fixed it!
