Hi,
I was told on my pre-meeting to close the toilet lid & flush twice - but not how long for?
My first EC was Friday so the red/pink wee has subsided, does that mean I can go back to water saving mode?
Any advice welcome.
In my experience, they never mind being rung so if you have any concerns ring them. You can also ask the Macmillian nurses on this site for any advice, they are really very understanding and helpful. I am now nearly 3 years since treatment finished apart from daily hormone blocker, in my case exemestane and doing well. So there is light at the end of the tunnel x
Hi MrsP2003, I asked my oncologist this as I had heard people mention it and was told it was fine to carry on as normal. No special do’s or don’ts for that. I used to drink and wee so much whilst having my chemo that by the evening my wee colour was back to normal again. I had 4x EC.
Hope all goes well with your chemo
