More choices and second guessing
Ok, I've lost count of how many hospitalisations I have had since starting chemo on 18 Dec I am beginning to think they should rename the isolation room in ER 'Nadine's Room' as I seem to be there so...

I know how that feels! I had shortness of breath. Could just about have a shower then get all puffed out. Ct scan, initially to check for blood clots, came back that I had inflammation of the lungs caused by the chemo. Up to that point I had had 3 TAC treatments. I was put on steroids which definitely helped but then it took me months to come off of them. Now currently undergoing 25 radiation treatments and have been warned that this could affect the lungs again. I only remember having a couple of ct scans but then again it could have been more. In the end you are having so much done, you forget exactly what you did have. Chemo brain!
i had 6 chemo treatments in all and was hospitalised for 5 of them. I cAme to dread needles as it was a constant barrage of meds and bloods needed.
Hang in there, you have done well so far and there is light at the end of the tunnel.
I just have 15 more radiations to go. Not that I'm counting or anything!!
