    Do not be scared

    Miracle 3,

    Do not be scared many are not that drastic. I just finished 6 rounds of RCHOP. Was it fun no! Was it as bad as I anticipated? No. Would I do it again?  Well they tell me there is no evidence of cancer left and in 6 months I should be moving right along. Pretty sure it was a small bump in the road and well worth it. In no way is Chemo a vacation or something to get excited about. I would much rather had taken 2 weeks of antibiotics and been well. However it was bearable and the more info I got on this forum the better I was able to handle the side effects and know what to expect. If needed you can do this and I pray you have a smooth ride. I know not everyone does but not everyone has the worst either.

    non hodgkins

    I was diagnosed last Sept  with stage 4 Non Hodgkins double explressor- very fast growing.  Started Chemo with RCHOP in Oct.  It did kick my butt . February 6 last chemo treatment.  I am alive and very grateful.  Have neuropathy and various muscle and joint pains and still very tired.  But in taling to others who have had cancer this is normal.  I just look at it as this is my new normal and if things improve that would be great.  Prayers to all that are going thru chemo.
