Hi Jane, I had three cycles of chemotherapy for muscle invasive bladder cancer, and found it be a roller coaster ride! Most days I was quite lucky and found that I could exercise and eat as normal. On a couple of occasions I felt a little depressed, but luckily I was able to continue! What I would say helped me was, during my infusion, I actually went through some maths exam papers, which also helped chemo fog prevention. I was able to walk three miles after each session, so once again quite lucky. Not forgetting my wonderful lady wife. (support helps!) Hope you are OK with the infusion.
Thank you so much for your response. I'm determined to be brave!! I shall take some puzzles with me to do. Just hoping I can manage hosting Xmas whilst dealing with 6 weeks of infusions!

You will be fine.
Keep fit both physically and mentally.
All the very best.
