Good Morning Pmoos! I just wanted to let you know that I was thinking about you and wanted to wish you good luck tomorrow as you begin your treatment. (Are you still starting your chemo tomorrow?)
If you are anything like I was the day before I was to receive my very first chemotherapy treatment of my entire life.....I am sure you are feeling a lot of emotions. I was very scared! I remember thinking, "what the hell am I doing with CANCER" ? I was certain that any moment the phone would ring and the doctor would say, "never mind, we screwed up you don't have cancer". But that didn't happen. I also wondered what chemo felt like. For my entire life I heard about people getting chemotherapy for cancer but I never really talked to anyone about exactly what it feels like when you are the patient and you are laying there being injected with chemotherapy drugs. I wanted to know the answer the day before I started my first chemo and I could not find anyone to answer my question. Fortunately when I arrived at the Cancer Center I was greeted by a wonderful women who was a cancer survivor. She had been assigned to stay with me and my family to walk us through and answer any questions. Thank God! I can happily report to you if you want to know what it feels like to have chemo.....it feels like NOTHING! Absolutely nothing! Lol!
Good luck today! Prayers coming your way.

Hi Pmoos. I was diagnosed two years ago with stage IV diffuse large b-cell. I know the fear you are feeling right now. It's really hard when you're newly diagnosed and feel like you have nothing firm under your feet because everything is an unknown. Feel free to contact me if you like. I am happy to answer any questions I can, or even just listen. You are not alone in this, and will find your way. Gymmom/aka Donna0May 2017
