I had radiotherapy & chem0.
side effects i had -
all fast growing cells die so...
Hair falls out
fingernails fall out
roof of your mouth falls apart
Taste buds and smell go haywire
Loss of apetite
the treatment hits your bone marrow so -
no energy (cannot even stand)
reduced brain function
no immune system
Lots of transfusions and platelets so -
steroid withdrawl shakes
dry and itchy skin
vomiting
uncontrollable diahorria
sleeplessness.
yes - all bloody awful but it was worth it because i am alive today.
