Do I carry on?

Hi, please let your oncology team know how poorly you feel, there may be something that can be done to help.I can recommend Laxido or Movicol as a gentle laxative but check with the nurses if you are allowed to take it

Hi slash1953. Yes please talk to your team - a reduction in dosage can make a huge difference. At the end of the day the choice is yours as to whether to carry on or not - you’ve given it a shot - the doctors gave you the choice about whether to have the chemo or just monitor it so you could always go back to just monitoring and see how it goes.

Take care

thanks again Karen x

And don't  apologise for feeling down, it is a huge thing to deal with. Sometimes we feel we have to be more positive than we feel for the sake of those around us.

hi Slash53 this is the place to air your feelings if you need to. People here have an idea of how you're feeling. You have a good moan.

Hi Terry

Feel free to moan here. It’s the one place that is fine you’re not moaning really you’ve had so much to process and sometimes it’s good to release it so you can cope with what’s happening 
Can your oncologist recommend something to help with the constipation that won’t make you feel awful? 

I hope that things settle. Keep talking if it helps 

Ahhh Thank you. Talking to them today. xx

Hope you get some good advice and support. Keep us updated 

Hope you have got some help from your team? If you have to give up, just remember that you gave it your all. Take care

Hi, got the constipation sorted and feel better but not brilliant! I think I just have to expect that its the way its going to be while on on chemo? Thanks all for your support,its appreciated. x
