Worried about chemotherapy and immunotherapy side effects

I was only diagnosed on April 22nd and have been in a whirl since.  I am now about to go through Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy on tuesday, to prolong my life..

I am extremly worried about what side affects I will have.

I would love to hear from anybody who has been through this.

 

  • Hi Ally421,

    Welcome to Cancer Chat. I'm sorry to read about your diagnosis and I hope you're getting on OK although no doubt it must be a worrying time.

    I would encourage you to discuss with your doctor or specialist about expected side effects, particularly as these can be different for each person and depending on the specific type of treatment.

    I hope you find this forum useful, and do use it as much as you'd like for support. You may wish to browse the forum for other similar discussions, particularly if you don't get further replies to your post here. It may also be helpful, in order to encourage further replies, for you to give a bit more info about your diagnosis and treatment so that others who may be in similar situations can hopefully reply.

    Wishing you all the best,
