ongoing gut issues
I finished chemo October 16 and I'm still having upset tummy issues. Anyone got any ideas ? Is this gradually going to stop or is it not common ? Or maybe is it now related to radiotherapy ? Or Arimi...
Hi Magicmum
I have had nausea and loss of appetite since chemo. I finished chemo in May and Radiation in July.I think the Tamoxifen is contributing now. I still have some anti nausea tabs from chemo and take one one every few days as needed. Talk to someone on your care team for advice. As our bodies can all react so differently to treatments. I also have a daily herbal mix to keep my bowels moving.
Yay for finishing chemo. Its a tough part of the treatment journey. Every time I see a specialist they all say don't undersestimate how much this has hit your body and expect slow recovery. Hard to be patient as I want to return to normal routine and better health. My occ therapist said slow and steady wins the race. So its ok to be the tortoise and not the hare!!
