On cycle 4/8: Had head spinning feeling on and off and quite woozy what do people do to combat this, if anything?
I tried my hardest even though sometimes it was tough to eat with them. I found breakfast was difficult. 1 piece of toast left me feeling as you describe but if I forced 2 rounds down I seemed to be ok
No, food has been ok, just the symptoms described have been an issue for me alongside sleeping a lot and feeling sick at the back of the throat on occasions. Wasted my time at A&E last night on advice from cancer nurse but will pick up things with consultant next week.
Were you given anti sickness tablets? I found as soon as I felt a bit woozy that if I took the anti sickness with plenty of water I improved.
