Hi , I had my first chemo of Docetaxel and Carboplatin yesterday. So far feeling remarkably good although can’t stop peeing due to the amount of water I’m drinking! When do I expect things to hit me, another of those waiting games I suppose!
Hi and welcome to the Online Community, although I am sorry to see you finding us and so sorry to hear that you are fighting breast cancer.
A cancer diagnosis can indeed bring a lot of stress, confusion and questions but talking with people who are on the same journey can help a lot.
I see that you have already joined our very supportive Breast cancer and Triple negative breast cancer groups, these groups will open up your concerns to a wider audience who know exactly what you are going through at the moment.
Just follow the links above then go to the 'Start a Discussion' tab and set up your own Discussion and introduce yourself to the group - you could just copy an paste what you have in this first post.
All the very best.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
