I took my second cancer journey video in the hospital a few days after starting my first dose of chemo. This shares my initial feelings after starting chemotherapy, as well as my first side effects. My specific combination of meds is called DCF. My largest side effects were neuropathy, peeling hands, and dry mouth and then later on really bad mouth sores.
These are some of the things I used to help with the side effects from the chemotherapy.
Suzipads Ice Packs for Neuropathy- amzn.to/496VwQ7
Wrist Ice Pack- amzn.to/46RsOAw
Biotene Dry Mouth Rinse- amzn.to/46uUviK
Nipple Butter (used for dry hands)- amzn.to/46HlWWE
Van Man Beef Tallow- amzn.to/48LbM90

What an example in strength and resilience baby girl's getting from her mom. I wish the example wasn't necessary, but since the challenge is here uninvited: you both are rising to it with grace. May treatment side effects be as minimal and the succes be as great as possible. Rooting for you both!

I'm a Neonatal nurse. Your baby is now at some risk of picking up an infection. There are viruses' and bacteria in Hospital Units , even coming through the heating/ air conditioning systems. That's just the way it is. A fact of life in every single Hospital environment and Ward and, indeed, everywhere we go outside too .They decided delivery was the best route for her, at her current size and gestation, so she wasn't affected by chemotherapy drugs in any way. In balance, that WAS the best thing to do for her! NOW they have to treat , and protect her, as if she were still in your womb . Meaning, (1) supporting her to develop her feeding reflexes, ( that CANNOT BE TAUGHT) It will develop in your baby's own time and is often 1 step forward and 1step back. It takes patience on the part of the parents! (2) To maintain her temperature within normal range. (3), To try to prevent infection when handled....so, you need to be gowned up, if that's your particular Hospitals' policy for Neonates. Also, and very importantly, patients receiving Chemotherapy have a very reduced Immune System so are at considerable risk of getting Infections. The gowns may well be necessary to protect YOU from picking up an infection. There is so much that is normal and routine to us, as Staff who are experienced and know about Neonatal Care Or Oncological Care. Ask THEM about the many things you don't understand, rather than questioning it on your Vlogs . That way you'll, hopefully, gain more knowledge and peace of mind , regarding you and your daughter's care. You need to learn to question more as you've got a long journey ahead. Not questioning your symptoms, in exactly the same way, actually delayed your diagnosis. You need to know how to advocate for your own body, and learn what/why things are happening around you. I hope you're able to rest and sleep really well, and that the remainder of your Chemo is as comfortable as possible for you. Hope your baby is soon thriving and beginning to regain her weight.( It's normal for babies to lose weight, then regain it again)

The timing of this must be so overwhelming. Bad enough having cancer but at this crucial time just makes it so much more challenging. But one day you will look back and be amazed to see how you came through it.

I'm sorry you've also joined the cancerstyle club. I'm terminal, spinal cancer and fractured vertebrae and sternum. Bone cancer with mets galore t/out my body. Please take comfort in knowing you are not alone. The cancerstyle (lifestyle) is full on with good and bad days. If you need to cry, cry. If you need help, reach out, help in the support has been extremely challenging for me as I'm socially isolated so I have that extra challenge but going onto antidepressant and valium for anxiety have helped me a lot. I keep you and your family in my prayers 🙏❤🇦🇺🌻

Ya all the cancer stories are popping up. I’m so thankful to lea of all this cancer happening to us in the world and it’s hard to hear it but we are aware this way. Many cancer journey videos I’m following, please stay positive one persons journey has been not at all like they said it would be at all, they told her she had a year to live and that can’t ever be a sure thing because God decides that not Science or Doctors.

He lost half his tongue which was reconstructed with his forearm . He has done chemo and radiation. Manuka honey is very helpful with mouth sores. I will continue to keep you in my prayers.

Sweet Melanie you are an inspiration to me and so many others out here watching from afar. As someone who’s dealt with breast cancer I know the scares of dealing with cancer in general. That anxiety will always be there sis but I promise it will get better. Stay positive even on those hard days because tomorrow is another day and with each day your going to fell and get better and better. ❤ Thank you so much for allowing us to follow your journey. I had documented my whole 2yr breast cancer journey, the good, the bad and the ugly side to it but once chemo had me weak and felling sick I didn’t feel like edit8mg and posting but now 2yrs in remission and felling and looking like my old self again I’m thinking of sitting down and editing vids to share maybe a few times a week during Oct which is breast cancer awareness month and in Nov my TNBC diagnosis month in hopes my journey vids can help someone new on what they can expect too. The last of the three types of chemo I took and the type was the easiest chemo caused me mild neuropathy and it’s still an issue 2yrs later and I used the ice packs too but we are all different sweetie and I pray it helps you ❤also get you some biotin wash and ask your oncologist about some magic mouthwash they can mix up for you especially if you get some soreness in your mouth, get some Eucerin lotion for your skin and a good nail, cuticle oil for your nails, keep them clear of nail polishes as well.

Thank you for sharing all this with me! I’m sorry you had to fight but I’m so glad to hear you’re in remission. It definitely may be worth sharing for others who are facing a similar battle. It’s why I decided to share in hopes that something helpful can come out of such a sucky thing. I’m really working to stay positive and keep moving forward. Unfortunately the magic mouthwash didn’t help me. It barely took the edge off, but I found that swilling honey and then doing salt water baking soda wash was the ticket for me so far: will look into all the other things you mentioned for the rest of treatment. Thank you 💛💛

It's incredible what chemo does when it's working. Amazing stuff, despite how otherwise terrible it is. Glad you're feeling okay, meantime. It does tend to peak after day 3 for a lot of people, so it's good to be prepared for that possibility. It can be at its roughest days 3 to 7, but then you start feeling a little better each day. By day 9 or 10 you basically feel like your old self again 👍

Congratulations on your “Baby Girl!” You are doing great…soon this will all be over and you will be back to your routine. Just have to get through the treatments. I knew once I got those out of the way…I would be fine! Praying for a complete healing for you and your family. (I chomped on ice during my Adriamycin (red Devil)treatments…no sores in my mouth at all.

Lorazepam is nice to knock you out though… calms your anxiety even you dont feel like you’re anxious. Love listening to this. It’s very helpful! 😊 Congrats new mommy!

It is so wonderful to hear about your baby and how well she is doing. Think of the chemo as the healing potion it is. It will allow you to spend the rest of your life loving your miracle child and being returned back to health. You are so much stronger than you give yourself credit for being. Stay strong!
