last chemo tomorrow
Hello ladies,
Just thought I would touch base cos it's been a while.
After having done 5 cycles of FEC, D I will be having my 6th and final chemo today.. I am looking forward to that but I know the side effects will continue for a few weeks after that so it's a little bitter sweet. And those of you going through chemo can relate to the unpleasant side effects I am referring to such as furry mouth, loss of appetite, very sore finger tips, flushed burning face, headaches, etc.. just to name a few. so maybe I should write again after they have passed lol.
I also want say that this web site has helped me through some tough times. Only people going through the same thing can really understand how you are feeling and what you are going through.. many times i would just read someones post and find i had all my questions answered. Great support.
Thank you everyone xxx cheers for 2013

- Nads07MemberDon't worry before you know it you too will be posting your 'last chemo' entry on this site. Good luck throughout the rest of your chemo. How have you coped with the side effects so far? For me the FEC part gave me lots of nausea and the D part has given me facial rashes, feeling tired and drained and body aches and pains.. Cheers xxx

Hey Nads07
Congrats, congrats, congrats. It is such a wonderful feeling to finish your chemo isn't it? I know that the side effects will hang around for a while but just that feeling of knowing no more chemo is fantastic. Well done and enjoy the elation of slowly getting your life back. What a wonderful day for you.
