Chemotherapy Cycle 4 week 2 and 3

Well not sure if this will be the last cycle will explain later. So as I said my chemotherapy cycles have been pretty predictable. The thrush came and went with the helpful of medication took a bit longer this time. Had more headaches this time and my sleep pattern was awful.

So I had my last cycle on 7th then my covid booster on 8th and flu injection on the 14th lots of needles this month. Then for some unknown reason had a Pet scan 22nd. According to the scan nurse it's to check to see if the chemotherapy is working hence not sure if I'll be getting more or not. However I'm not waiting long till I see my consultant which is on 3rd November. So will keep you updated of results and what's next.

Hope my journey has helped you if you are maybe starting your journey on chemotherapy.
