Good afternoon ladies

I am wondering about second round of chemo which is coming up in 11 days for me. I have heard many stories about the first round being the hardest and that it's easier second time. Is this correct? The reason i want to know is that i am thinking of going back to work maybe 2 days a week but am too scared to plan anything as i am not sure that this is how i will feel after round 2.

Thanks for your help and stay strong

Hope everyone is well. Its been 5 days since my first round of FEC an what an emotional journey it has been.

The first day wasnt that bad. Tired and foggy and hungry ( which was a surprise).Thanks to my wonderful husband i still get up and have a shower everyday ( sort of makes me feel half human). I find that by mid morning i need a nap and that keeps me going till bed time.

This is my first blog in the world of bc. I am about to start my first round of chemo tomorrow and am not sure what to expect. I have read many inspiring stories on here and by the sounds of it everyone reacts to treatment differently.

I would like to know some handy tips on how to approach the first treatment without loosing my mind. And how to manage symptoms which follow. As i am new i would greatly appreciate all information i can get.

Thank you all and may you stay strong
