Anyone else get grumpy??

I am so irritable at the moment with everything and everyone!!

Don’t like being like this!

 Anyone else get grumpy?

 Half way through chemo feel alone and lost.

  • im going to say, you are at what i found the most stressful stage, the hair, the worries, the rage and the feeling sick. the lack of patience and everything. the taste buds, you are dealing with a lot. be kind to yourself, accept that the grumpy is not really in your control and tell people that you are grumpy, but its not personal and steroid induced. 

    and for steroids i took mine late afternoon, so first in am,then probably around 4 pm. try to set a calming sleep routine maybe, a sleepy tea and a book or somethingyou enjoy quietly

  • Oh I hope so. Thanks! 

  • it seems we are all given different advice! My nursing team told me to categorically not take any steroids after midday as they would interfere with sleep. I was told to take with breakfast and lunch.  it might be worth asking your oncology team about when to take steroids to avoid sleep problems. Xxxx 

  • I will ask. To be honest I get confused with all different needs they give me after sessions!
