Getting ready for 3rd chemo

Hi everyone , I am getting ready for my 3rd chemo on tuesday and Iam dreding it a bit , so far I did not get bad side effects is just that I am feeling so good now so close to normal and from tuesday will be back to horid taste in my mouth , feeling extreamly tired and to top it off I found out that the swelling in the hands and fet will get worsed. I don't know if its normal or not to feel like this but I feel rather down at the moment , it might be the rain, that's it I 'll blame the weather for my bad mood. Well enough with the winging at least will be one more after this and than chemo will be in the past and I'll be facing radiotherapy next . Thank you for listening , I feel a bit better now that i put my feeling on "paper", hope my mood will improve by tuesday and I will be back to my optimist self again. Bye for now Monica

  • I think it's the combo of dexamethasone and chemo and the whole cancer thing that lowers your mood.You'd have to be superwoman to keep a smile on your face throughout chemo!Just go with the flow and good luck for Tuesday.
