Hi all,

I’ve just had my 3rd chemo session for breast cancer and it’s going as well as it can but I can smell this horrible smell around me all the time I presume from the drugs and it is making me feel so nauseous. 
Has anyone ever experienced this and come up with a solution for it? I’m fed up of my own smell making me feel sick Cry.

  • Hi  and I see it’s your first post so a warm welcome to the Macmillan Community but so sorry to hear about your challenges.

    This is not something that I experienced…… but different types of chemo brings different side effects so talking with people who are on the exact same treatment can help a lot…… so can I recommend you look to join and post in our dedicated……

         Breast cancer

    ……. support group.

    This group is a safe place to talk to others who may have a similar diagnosis, treatment experience, to ask questions and get support from people on the same journey.
