Looking for advice - My mum had her last chemo 4 weeks ago, was supposed to start another cycle last Thursday, but, her bloods were very low so, no chemo, my mum is very weak & appears to be getting weaker! is this normal?, (was her 4th cycle of chemo) I thought that with her not having had her chemo for a month that she might start to pick up, (her tumour had shrunk significantly - result of scan mid January) also very poor appettite. At her consultation on Thursday she did,nt see her normal consultant & was told by doc that she saw that she reckoned that her own consultant will recommend that she does,nt have any more chemo as it's having such a bad effect on her, I know that chemo can affect everbody differently, I just hoped that my mum would have picked up a bit by now.

Hi Laura
Sorry to hear your mum hasn't been well but thats the trouble with chemo it poisons you but its obviously working so thats a big plus.
My daughter was terribly ill on chemo but she did pick up after she finished. It does take a while to get out of your system and makes you tired and weak. Lets hope she picks up soon
