I am undergoing chemotherapy for BC, thought I was coping well with my first 3 sessions, side effects not too distressing.  I had the 4th session last week and am really feeling bad with first constipationt, now I have diarrhoea, nausea and am unable to eat properly, also a headache.  I am making sure I do not get dehydrated and trying to keep occupied and resting when I need to..  Feeling very alone as my partner is at work all day and I do not have familywho can visit.  Friends tell me they will give me a lift to hospital (24 miles) if ever I need to go.  But if I can't go out I don't see anyone I don't want to ask anyone around as I am feeling very low and don't want to inflict others with this. I chat to my mother on the phone most days but she is elderly and I don't want to worry her too much.  My partner does what I ask him to but he has never dealt with anything like this and finds it difficult.
