Thanks Anna12345 it's nice to hear some positive outcomes from other peoples experiences, I just feel it one rubbish thing after another and the emotional impact it causes at every little stage. I'm normally quite a strong person and with 2 young children I am trying my best to keep it together but feel i could crumble at any time. I go from being upset one min to been so angry the next. Just want it all to be over! X
It is a rocky emotional time and I only have the 1 child but it is hard trying to keep emotionally stable definitely, you do have this whirlwind of emotions. I find I think I’m coping very well and something happens and I have a huge emotional response to it. I remember starting chemo in July and thinking god this seems so so long and I’m never going to get through it, then you settle into a weird messed up routine and like anything the time just seems to go by fast, here I am now, somehow having had my last chemo last week x
I had to go alone for Chemo because of Covid but that might just be the rules where I go. Luckily there were a lovely group of women waiting for their Chemo which helped me control my nerves. I was lucky that the nurse who gave me the Chemo was old school and sat with me manually syringing the drugs into me. She was very supportive. I hope that you have somebody nice looking after you. Also you know that you have a group of fellow members who are going or have gone through what you are experiencing on here. x
Yes I thought it better that additional people were not allowed in, ( not just re covid rules) we were all in the same boat, apart from one lady who brought in her husband ( no she wasn’t physically compromised/ unable to mobilise)
his loud booming voice was so annoying ! It’s a large communal room so was lovely to be with everyone in the same circumstances, having their chemotherapy
