My husband's cancer came back. He starts weekly chemo soon. He will also have daily radiation (M-F). He looks good and feels good right now. After the first chemo he won't look or feel good. There can be so many side effects. I don't want him to suffer in any way. I can help with some things and others things I might not be able to help. I have anxiety about the cancer and the side effects.

Have you talked to the Oncologist or your GP regards how you feel, it is important you gain some support for yourself through these hard times.Sometimes it may be a good time to sit down with your husband and talk together, you are both going through this horrible condition.

oncology office was the problem. We both have counselors to talk to.

You say Oncology is the problem, and you are both having CBT, Can I help in any way. You are both going through such an unsettling time.Are the CPNs in conflict and that is upsetting you both. ?

no. it was the allergic reaction and taxol. PA @ oncology office scared us. She made it sound like he will have an allergic reaction. She did it several times. But all good now that I talked to a nurse from the infusion center.
