Hi annmac, I was diagnosed with bowel cancer 14th Feb last year, had an operation end of March last year and after healing, went onto chemo and the 3 week cycle I had 8 cycles. I think I was quite lucky and never had any major effects during the chemo treatment, what I did learn was that after each cycle you learn what is good for you, and how you react, so you know when to plan things, what makes things go better ? what takes away any nausea or sickness if you experience any. What I never realised during this was how taking medication can be such a chore!! but as I said you will pick up your little treats that make you feel better . Just stay strong and don't let the medication take control of you ... Good luck and as Virgo said "Kick Cancers Behind"
