  • Hi tell your team anbout  ankles. . Not everyone completes all the course of chemo. I was planned fir 3x10 hour infusions but only completed 2 . My oncologist said it’s in the 66% figure if people who  don’t complete all sessions. Chemo is a top up to the  main event  radiotherapy. Are you drinking enough 2-3 litres of water ? Daily. 
    Good luck today. Hazel
