Hi i'm about to go ahead with my third round of chemo for bladder cancer. I've been lucky and not had any of what I was told could be the normal side effects but I seem to be feeling constantly tired and with cold like symptoms. Just wondering if others have had the same experience. Thanks Robin
Hi Robin and a welcome from me. It is normal for chemo to have these effects on the body. what type of chemo ? Is it directly in to the bladder or vein? I had 6 weeks of Gem/Cis and other than some tiredness I tolerated it quite well, but we do see people here who struggle to get through it. There is always a chance of infection as your resistance is low, so might be worth getting as sample tested. Always let your nurses know how you are feeling. In the meantime stay well hydrated. Best wishes.
