Hi, I had my first cycle of chemo on Thursday & im struggling with feeling agitated. Is this normal? I do take anti depressants and pharmacist said that it could interact with one of my anti sicknesmeds . If it did she said they would change me on to something else. Could it be that it is that how having chemo makes you feel? I don’t know if I can do this another 5 times
Sorry for the ramble I feel like I can’t settle and I’m pacing around like some mad woman
Hi MrsB23,
When I had my chemo July to September I felt agitated and shaky on the days I had to take my steroids after the 3 days taking the steroids I settled down.
If your meds are responsible ask for it to be changed see if it settles.
I hope they get it sorted for you. It's tough but doable.
I thought it would never end but it does. I'm through the other side now and getting stronger each day.
Good luck with your recovery xx
