I am receiving weekly TCHP and I’ve had five sessions so far. I found it rather a rollercoaster with just over two days where I’m buzzing when on the steroids and then I completely crash with upset stomach and exhaustion for the rest of the week before going into the next session. It would be great to hear from anyone with their experiences of this regime. I’ve also had very mild tingling in my feet post treatment but this normally resolves within 24 hours. Is this to escalate or is this a fairly common occurrence? I know it’s often the symptom that means that your treatment is dose reducing or limiting and I really don’t want that.
