Introduce yourself CLL

CLL

Offline Geoffers over 5 years ago

I'm new to this forum. I'm about to start chemotherapy tomorrow for CLL.

Any advice please?

Will I feel the side effects from my 1st chemo tomorrow straight away or in a few days time?

Will the side effects be as bad after the 1st 5 days on the tablets?

Are certain foods to be avoided?

Will I ever have a reasonable night's sleep?

Hi Geoffers,
I just wanted to welcome you to Cancer Chat and wish you all the best for tomorrow.
Hopefully some of our members will be offering their tips and advice soon but whilst you wait we have some information on our website about chemotherapy for CLL.
Our cancer nurses are just a phone call away if you'd like to have a quick chat with them about your treatment as well. They're available Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m on 0808 800 4040.
Kind regards,
Steph, Cancer Chat Moderator
