Hate to be a moaner but I have had two chemo sessions,and both have resulted in trips to hospital because I end up dehydrated,I am very sick after each session.I am stressed over this as it means each cycle is going to take that little bit longer and my recovery time will be extended.Would appreciate any advice from you wonderful people,thank you for being here.

    Hello emmamoo,

    Max56 gave you some very good advice and I am pleased to see you also received a warm welcome from Brian.

    I will just add that we have some useful information on sickness and cancer drugs here with some tips on how to cope with it.

    I hope it helps a little! Don't hesitate too to ring our nurses on this free number 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm and feel free to ask them any question on any side effect you may be experiencing.

    Best wishes,

    To be fair to my chemo team they have done all and more of the above,including various anti sickness drugs,maybe it's just my reaction to the drugs that are causing the problem.Thank you for all of the help.and advice its very much appreciated.
