Is that a light at the end of the tunnel??

Oh dear @Scorpio101 ... I am so sorry it whacked you in the head like that - and how terrific that your other half is so supportive ...... your sense of humour is shining thru! Well done on getting thru this one, girl!
Being your first 'dose' .... hopefully your next one may not be as bad a reaction - but you sort of know what to expect now - the time line & effects ...
Just make sure you take the anti nausea tabs & drink LOTS of water to flush the stuff out of your system a bit quicker.
My Hubby really went off his food during his chemo as he said it all tasted like metal (he was only 50kg so it was imperative he not lose any more weight) so I was dosing him up on whatever he 'fancied' to eat - be it KFC Chicken wraps & their Berry Smoothie (which he loved) or Steak & Kidney pies from the local bakery (we still have them now & then!) Then he took a fancy to my smoked fish pie, which I double dosed with cheese for extra calories for him .... SO .... if you really really like something - stock up on it & eat it whilst you feel like it! ;)
All the best for your ongoing treatment. Make haste slowly! xx
