Hi all,
I hope you’re all keeping well? I’m pretty bad at coming back here and keeping up with everything at the moment.
I’m just looking for some advice really around GemCarbo. My mums about to start this as her palliative care chemo. She’ll have 4 sessions over the next 6 weeks, before they do scans etc to see if it’s doing anything positive.
Have you been on this chemo? Did you have any/many side effects? What do I need to keep an eye out for, with her after treatment days. What can I get her to make things feel a little better during and between treatments?
Any advice appreciated x
