Oh Steve. I'm so sorry that things have got so bad for you. I'm presuming that your medical team are aware of how treatment is affecting you and what you are now considering.
Please be aware that most of what you are experiencing is temporary. It does get better. It takes time but it most certainly does get better.
I really hope that you have a solid support network to support and guide you from herein.
As Paul said - please reconsider.
