It is the fear of the unknown that is so hard. We are all scared when we commence Chemotherapy. I found the actual treatment OK. The staff were very kind and understanding ....I took a book and watched telly to pass the time. We are all unique and have different responses to treatment....a lot of ladies have minimum side effects..and for those that do ..there are lots of medications they can give to alleviate them. I wish you well for the day. Chris.xx
