Just a quick question for those of you who have had chemo....
Its day 10 after my first session of Chemo and am feeling quite ok but my scalps so incredibly itchy is this what happens before your ...
Hi Janey
Bilateral Mastectomy went so well I was home from hospital less than 48hrs later....still had 3 drains in though but that seems so long ago now.....unfortunately 4 out of the 20 lymph nodes that were taken tested positive for cancer so that means I had to have Chemo as well as radiation.Started Chemo on the 22nd Nov my first of 6 ....it wasnt exactly pleasant but the nausea is what i really am struggling with but luckily munching on fruit is helping ...thank goodness its summer season because i dont think apples and oranges would have the same effect!!
The expectation of my hair falling out is hard to deal with especially as my 9yr old daughter is worrying about this also but now I know it will be sooner rather than later............
