Good morning all, I’m nearly at the end of chemo, thank goodness Docetaxel has not been pleasant.
I’m due to have my mastectomy and stomach flap reconstruction in November.
Would love any advice, as feeling pretty nervous about the op.
Have a lovely day xxx
Good morning Sukki17,
thank you for your advice on the underwear.
My last chemo is this Friday yipeee, then op is 3 weeks after 13 November. I have lots of lip balms, I found through chemo my lips got dry.
Also stock up on water, the first couple of days after chemo you get a dry mouth and very thirsty.
When you get your plan let me know
