Well I had my first treatment today.RCHOP The R caused my throat to get scratchy and burn a little, like when you first start getting sick. I had also a heavyness in my chest. Those past and all in all it was ok. I am tired but fine. It took about 6 hours to do. They say the next one will be an hour shorter...woo hoo
