Hi it’s the first time posting on the site. I’ve recently been diagnosed with breast cancer and had my first chemotherapy on Monday just gone. So everything is still a big whirlwind to me. Starting to feel very tired now, lose of taste and aching body. Not sleeping very well of a night either. I’m really taking each day as it comes for this healing journey. Any tips would be gratefully accepted help make this journey any easier. Much love ️

Hi sor sorry about your diagnosis but it’s great you’ve find this site. There is an April chemo thread that you would probably benefit more from posting on and from reading through. It’s for everyone currently going through chemo. I didn’t need chemo so can’t offer and advice. Here is the link
Wishing you all the best with your treatment and journey x
