Hi, I’m 30 and found out I had breast cancer three months ago. I start chemotherapy in two weeks and I’m just wondering if there are any tips on what I should do to prepare my body, things to take to the hospital etc. Thanks
Hi Nedge, I am sorry to hear that you are starting chemotherapy soon.
In the diagnoses and treatment section of this group, there is a chemotherapy post pinned to the top of the page. I'll post the link here for you so you can find it.

There is also a very good blog with lots of ideas that from people who have been through chemo. I'll also put the link for that here for you.
