Hi, I am over just over a week from my first chemo treatment. And it was a doozy of a week. I have begun to feel good today; the nausea, diarrhea, constipation, and more just overwhelmed me. I was tired to the point I couldn't keep my eyes open I still have no appetite, but I eat at regular times, and I still can't taste much, and my scalp is still very tender and the rash on my body and face are starting to fade. I haven’t updated till today because my mind has been fogged up How did anyone find ways of dealing with the effects, and how did anyone mentally maintain a healthy outlook I am still comforting my mum, and I need her to comfort me, as selfish as that sounds, my mental health is suffering. Any helpful advice would be great thankyou
