First day of AC
Today's the day. My first day of AC at Redcliffe Hospital. I'm not scared of being there. The staff there are lovely. I am anxious about coming home and what it's going to feel like. I hope I am going to cope.

- Try not to worry.The first day is usually a non event.You don't feel something immediately.You will be given Dexamethasone for about3 days,which will keep u feeling ok.Then you may start to feel tired,achy,maybe mouth ulcers,perhaps a rash.Kind of like a flu in a way.Just come home,drink your 3 litres of water a day for 3 days,and just carry on as usual:):) Stay in touch on here if you have concerns.Cheers xoxRobyn.p.s. Don't expect to sleep much,because Dex keeps you AWAKE!!!
