Please try not to worry about Chemo. I was like you and I felt terrified. Anxiety over chemo on top of everything else was something I didn’t want to experience. My first day I walked in and was greeted .by 2 wonderful chemo nurses who b put me at ease and answered my questions honestly and I trusted them immediately. I had a visit from the pharmacist who gave me 4 sedative tablets to take1 for tnext few sessions. 1 to take 1hr before chemo. My chemo anxiety disappeared after 2 sessions Iso much that I forgot to take them.   I have just returned from my 11th session today and can honestly say that I’ve been very lucky with side effects and have only just started to find my hair thinning so scarves and wig are on the way. At least bad hair  days are a thing of the past for a while.  I’ve been to the recommended hairdresser today for a wig and I am quite excited. I hope your treatment goes well and that you will feel much better after your chemo appointment.Hugs

Hi thank you for your message. I am encouraged so much when I read of so many positives from those who are already going through treatment.
