First Chemo Experience and the Days Following

I'll start off by saying that I'll be getting a microphone this week! :-)
So what's chemo and the after effects like? My first round of included Adriamycin (The Red Devil) and Cytoxan. I'll be doing this a total of 4 times every 2 weeks. The first day was by far the worst and it slowly got better, as many things always do.

    We were told Claritin without D- I wonder what the difference is- I am going to ask my moms doc when we see him

    Sorry to hear this! Really hope you get some relief soon and feeling a bit better - thats a long time bless you 👍🏻 I start chemo in a couple of weeks, just had second surgery last week (lymph node clearance) and that’s kicking my ass atm! most painful thing I ve ever had done. I’m trying to get as much info as poss but it’s the nausea and vomiting that worries me most - kinda just want to get this shit started now tbh, and get closer to the next step. I’ve had amazing treatment and care so far though, and I know the chemos going to be one of the hardest things I do - but im grateful to get treatment to try and stop this shitty disease! Try and keep positive all the bests! Take care x

    Water fasting during chemo treatments works wonders. It's not as hard as it sounds

    I'd rather pass if my 5 treatments don't work.

    I didn't lose my hair until after two weeks, and yes you lose your hair from head to toe (even your nose hairs!) After I lost my hair, I did wear a wig when I went out in public.
