Going through chemotherapy now

I have had four treatments now and between the neuropathy, the nausea and vomiting, and the tiredness, I am feeling like I have lost control of my life. I am pretty much dealing with a lot of issues on my own. Although I am married, I still feel alone in this and I don't know what to do.

    Emackstarr - You are going through a lot right now. I echo what the Mods said - try and get in a discussion group for the month you started chemo. Mine was a Godsend. Lot of support and no question was too crazy.

    You also might look for a local support group in your area if you don't have a support network of family and friends.
