  • Hi Katrina72,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm sorry to hear you are experiencing difficulties with the medication. The best thing is to discuss this with your doctor when you can, as they will be best placed to advise and offer some support to help ease this.

    You are welcome to post in the 'Ask the Nurses' section of this forum if you would like to get the thoughts of one of our nurses, but as I say do speak to your doctor when you can if the difficulties continue.

    I hope it improves soon, and we are always here for support on the forum if ever you need it.

    Wishing you all the best,
