SECOND CHEMO DONE
Hi all...second out of four chemo sessions over last Thursday and what a day...firstly tried three times for a vein - never had trouble before but evidently chemo can do that...then 5 mins into taxo ...
Happy Pink Ribbon Day Sandy
I feel for you but your now half way thru your treatments. And yes Chemo days can be long and tiring. I have had 5 treatments and my last one this Friday.
I have had bad reflux and it starts the day before chemo when I take my pre med Dexamethsone, I ended up drinking a small glass of milk which really did help much better than Quickez or Mylanta.
After every chemo I have been sick and they have all been different.
I can't stand to have needles into my right arm now as during my 2nd chemo the drug Carboplaten went into my tissue and not my vein and the area around the canula swelled . I to get down as well as I only see my partner for 7 days a month, but this time I don't see him again until December due to his work in PNG.
Keep smiling and take each day as it comes. :) Linda
