Hi Sandy, as your see I have been through the system of radiation and chemo at the same time and come out the other side, recently.

Let me tell you, the worst that you can go through and you can come through it, even though you may feel at your worst some times.

The funny thing is, as your see if you read my story, I was not to worried until I started the radiation and then the chemo, at the same time.

First horrible thing was, I had no appetite, so did not was to eat or drink for 3 weeks, so I lost 27kg, 2nd was all the flem that I was spitting up, pots of it. 3rd nasty thing, was the sickness I had to endure 24 hours after taking the chemo, that really drains you, if your not having chemo, you will not be so affected, you may feel sick and have the flem, but the worst is the sickness. I had 8 weeks of nastiness and the after effects are no taste buds, everything you eat taste a combination of iron filings and parrots droppings, and your apatite is nil.

So you basically goe through 2 months of uncomfortable feelings, then you slowly get better and now I have my taste back 90% and my weight back, better than before, everyone says I look fabulous lol so your get through it, just hang on, its going to be a roller coaster ride, at the time your feel bad, but remember! your be fine after, just tighten your seat belt, as my Doctor said we are going to hopefully cure you, so just don�t worry to much, with the new treatment now your live through it?
