Went for my chemo today and after been there an hour my oncologist said I couldn't have it due to low potassium magnesium and sodium so fluids of potassium and magnesium.

What a roller coaster this is we have a face to face with my oncologist after six he's thinking of stopping it now.

Not sure how I feel is it enough? Is it shorting my life ? 

I had stage 3 sigmoid cancer removed in jan this year 26 lymph removed one possibility two they debated,so decided on mop up as a precaution,my surgeon and oncologist both said I was caner Free thing that's at the back of my head for how long who can predict?

My head is spinning Tired face

  • Oh 

    Know wonder you have been feeling rough . My mum’s potassium dropped and she ended up quite ill with it so glad you are getting it sorted . 
    I think you can only trust that the oncologist is weighing up the risks against the benefits and feels it the right balance to strike . 
    Do you know the percentage increase of having chemo . You could ask the oncologist as that might reassure you .

    Take care ,
