Triple negative grade 3

Hi I’m due to have my second round of chemo. I just wondered if anyone is being or has been treated for the same and what to except with chemo side effects. I didn’t feel great at all for about 9 days after the first cycle but then started to feel a lot better . Feeling quite anxious about how much worse the side effects will be after each cycle . X

  • Hi there ...

    So so sorry you've had to join our little groop .. we all wish we'd NEVER need .. but so glad we have someone to chat too ..  esp because we know what's the emotional rollercoaster is like ...scary ...

    Well I've not had chemo .. I was lucky enough to not have it .. but I've been on here over 2 years now .. and one thing I've realised is everyone is different .. there's many many chemo treatments out there .. some don't feel much .. some keep their hair ... some get moderate side effects .. some have a rough time .. 

    The only thing that helps me explain easier, is when wer pregnant , we ask others what Labour is like .. how much it hurts .. Will we need painkillers ... and then realise no mater how many people tell you their story .. ours is different .. there's no normal  birth ... no normal chemo effects .. 

    I'm sure others will pop on and tell you about their journey through chemo ... so I'd take one day at a time .. go with how you feel and what your body says it needs .. rest / sleep / a few tears or even feeling o.k ..  just go with it .. and know your not alone.. wer all here trying to kick cancers *** .. together ..

    So any time you want to vent or just chat... wer here ..  the true meaning of the word brave is being scared witless but still doing what you have to any way... thats brave ...  Chrissie x
