Hi all,
Had my first chemo today, picc line fitted yesterday. Everything went OK, nurse did say the arm with picc felt bit hard she told me to watch out for swelling, it does feel hard, but not red said to watch out for blood clots, I just feel tired and bit spaced out , can't remember what she said if had issues, is it go to a & e or ring emergency line? Chemo brain already, had cold cap so was expecting headache
Chemo brain is real! 
It’s that going upstairs and not remembering why! After effects are grot but jump on them quick with various meds if need be. Hope PICC arm doesn’t prove to be an issue. I had 2 PICCs, first one bled, 2nd one my arm came up in blisters! Yuck! I just have chemo through crook in elbow now but it does mean sitting for ages with a straight arm which is bruised next day but soon recovers. Best wishes. X
