First chemo starts tomorrow (taxol and carboplatin) and I’m feeling very stressed and overwhelmed, so much going around my head, will I be ill this time tomorrow, will I be tired, will I look ill, will all my hair fall out, will I be too ill to play with my daughter for the rest of the week. How can I look well etc, how will i cope going into work every Wednesdays (I work from home the other days), I’ll have to get a sick note, go into hiding. Will I need to take a packed lunch, how will I pass the time, what if I fall asleep, will the nurses be nice. I’m not sure how I’m going to sleep tonight and starting to wonder if this is the right thing to do when I feel fine.
Did anyone else feel like this?
Hi Sparkle, its okay to cry. Good that you chatted to others, it makes the time go quicker and takes your mind off things. When I was diagnosed with cancer, one of the best bits of advice was to carry on with my normal routine as much as possible. So much so that when I got home from first chemo, I had a glass of wine with my evening meal 
. But I did find this advice useful as it helped me feel more 'normal'. I hope you are doing okay today. You've got this.
