Hi everyone just to you know I’m having a had time with my first chemo affects , I have no energy always tired .  I’m also feeling down and stress did not sleep well last night.  They say the first and second chemo cycle are hard😞

Hi Mary, it's normal to be so tired! Chemo is rough. I was definitely depressed through it. The first two cycles were multitudes harder than the remaining cycles for me. It got easier for me once my haematologist prescribed me something to help with my anxiety during chemo and once I got on top of my nausea (I just had to to just keep taking the anti-nausea meditation). Have you been linked in with a psychologist?

Hi @Jess24  No I have not be linked with a psychologist.  Two days ago I had to go to the emergency hospital as I was getting chest pain and both my arms where hurting like hell and it’s still hurting.   When I went to the emergency they did a ct scan on my chest to see if I had blood clot and that came up ok, I had two blood test and my troponin was 30 then they did another blood test and my troponin was 29.  I will see my gp on Monday to see a review with the cardiology and cardiac investigation.
