Hello @mrsorozco831 this might have been the most scared I have ever been. The week before my first chemo, since we can’t know for sure how it will be our brain tend to conjure up all kinds of things based on what we read and have seen and heard from others. My heart goes out to you now. I will tell you, the chemo regimen I took was not easy, but it wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be.
Typically, it does take time for the infusion so I would take a blanket, some snacks, and a book, tablet or other thing to occupy your time. You will figure out after the first one, how long it will take and what you really want.
Your oncology nurse will your best source of information on that day. She/he will also be a great asset to you during your time on chemo. Ask them what to expect over the first few days after treatment.
Do you know what your regimen will be? Do you have a list of questions for your provider?
