Hi, for anyone who is waiting for their first chemo, I've just done number 1 and it was ok. I barely slept last night and had a huge urge to stay under the duvet this morning. But! It didn't hurt a bit, nursing staff were lovely, I have peed lots, and generally feel a huge sense of relief that treatment is started. Met lots of new folk who were more savvy about cancer and happy to talk about it. I think I will sleep better tonight. Under no illusion what's ahead but feel more able to cope after today.
