Hello Mrsfrenzy

I'm glad to hear that you've finished treatment. I hope that you're continuing to recover from all that you've been through. 

Sometimes chemo veins can recover in time and sometimes they may not. As with many things post-treatment sometimes only time will tell. However, I certainly think it's worth giving our nurses a call for some advice. It may be that they are able to give you a bit more information and tips to help cope with the discomfort that you're experiencing. If you'd like to chat with them they're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

I hope things improve. 

Best wishes,

Hi Mrs frenzy, I am currently going through chemo and the same thing has happened to my vein. I know you will be a year on now, can I ask if yours has got better?

thank you x

Hi, thank you for replying. Yes I know exactly what you mean. Im getting 6 treatments in total, and only 2 of the red one went into that vein. Its unbelievable how just 2 can do that. Its good to know it will eventually get better.

Thank you xx
