That's so good to know. I am pleased you feel OK. Mine starts on Friday. Did you do anything to prepare yourself, before or during. Did you have a cold cap? xx

Beli I used Arctic cold caps through my second lot of chemo and kept my hair.

Don’t think I needed the cool cap with the chemo I had carboplatin don’t think you loose your hair with it xx

So pleased they let your daughter stay. I’ll be on my 3rd cycle this Friday. I found days 3 to 7 a bit worse but got better after that, and it was more doable than I thought. Take it easy if you can when your body needs it. We’ve got our fighting gear on roll on the rest of the chemo!👍

So pleased that the chemo went well and that your daughter was able to stay with you. Take it easy and recoup for the next one. It will all be done sooner than you think. 🤗

Great to hear! Soon you will get to know the lovely nurses in the clinic. I always look forward to seeing them again and they are so kind and loving. Big hugs all round, - our virus issues are pretty much under control here in S. Australia, thankfully. Good luck Polo!
