Had 1st RT at 8:40 am .Chemo took 10 hours was started at 3pm and finished at around 1am.

Lots of runs to the loo to decant nearly 8ltrs of fluid !! So up all night really. Lots of more goodies to take home ,3 days of steroids,

Anti bacterial mouthwash X4 a day 

Anti sickness medication use when needed ? I was thinking of taking it anyway for preventative reasons ,but was told not too ,any thoughts on that would be appreciated.

Bioxtra mouth stuff .

What I wanted to know was anyone get side effects from their first chemo? Crisplatin .

Laying on sofa at moment just tired from lack of sleep I think.
