declining chemo

1 minute read time.

well i am not sure why i am having chemo, and have decided that unless the docs can give me a good reason why i need it i wont be having it, i have been reading up on it and all those toxins invading my body, put me right off, i can effect all your organs, plus your bone marrow, you open to infection and if ya have bad veins (they cant get a line in) they put you under general to fit a line which stays there for the time of your treatment, well i want all that, i am already struggling to sleep on my left side, if they put a line in i wil only have my back to sleep, so there goes the sleep!

i am phoning the breast nurse tonmorrow for more facts, they say i have 30% risk of it coming back because i had vasciular spread but it was contained and nothing inthe nodes so why am i having it? i do wonder if its just the automatic step they stick you on, op, chemo, radio...next! well i want answers before i agree

if anyone on here has had a line fitted i would grateful to hear how it felt, how easy it was to live3 with, etc...also if anyone else has declined chemo.....

your thoughts would be appreciated, its a hard one, if i take it and out the toxins in, wil it make me worse in a bodily sense, i have ME so whats the risk of me having a decline with that, if i dont have it will i be silly, and risking my life!!!!
