so sorry to hear you are feeling unwell. Which hospital are you being treated at?I finished my chemo in December 2021 after 6cycles carbo/paclitaxol which made me sick each time constantly for a couple of days even though my last 2doses were reduced. Think my anxiety made matters worse. Although it was difficult for me to eat much for the first week after chemo I could tolerate a boiled egg on bread and butter so had a small square each time I had my tablets.oncologist advised soft food small amounts. I've got to have another follow up scan next week and have been really worried because I've been having pain down my righthand side and bouts of severe diarrhoea I haven't been to see my gp as its difficult to get an appointment but have been reluctant to go to A&E because of the same issue you have faced.The triage at my hosp is only available for 3months after chemo finishes . Is this the same at your hospital too?

I am at Guildford and I must say they are pretty good since my chemo they then look after me for another two years with regular monthly telephone calls and blood tests. And always available on a hotline for advice, which is reassuring. Good luck with your scan.

Take care x
