Hi just started chemo and it’s far worse than I imagined. How do people get through this
Hi Angie
I don’t think anybody can totally prepare you for chemo. Yes of course we all react differently to things so please speak to your chemo nurses or oncologist about what you are experiencing. There are lots of tips available to help with the side effects on the groups here and maybe if you share on here some of your issues you will get extra help and advice.
Whatever cancer throws your way, we’re right there with you.
We’re here to provide physical, financial and emotional support.
