Hi tissue,  welcome to the forum the club nobody wants to join. It all depends on if you have any side effects. I had very understanding boss and was allowed to work when i wanted (or well enough) to. Hopefully you won't be to bad. All being well others will give their stories soon, best wishes for the future........

Hi Nat

I was diagnosed in Oct and had Surgery in November, I took a few weeks off after the surgery but went back knowing I would need more time off when Chemo started. It was suggested that I should not return to work during Chemo as the Office I work in has no windows/fresh air but is ran on Air Con. So when one person gets a cold/virus everybody gets it,

Although I know health comes before money it is difficult not to think about the dreaded SSP. I’m sure as a nurse you will have a great Health cover and remember hundreds go through this and MacMillan do have loads of good financial advice.

I started Chemo today and know I am going to miss work/friends but made sure I have all their emails & mobile contacts.

Hope everything goes well
