constipation then diahrrea.......give up

Was at mom's last night. (she has stage 4 bc) Had her 5th double chemo a week ago. She is really, really down in the dumps from the way she has felt since round 4.

Time line this chemo treatment:
Chemo on tuesday (number 5)
Had to have nurse remove impacted feces on Saturday (sorry for discrip)
Sunday-diahrrea still has it on Tuesday

Her guts are just so out of whack. She said last night she wakes up everyday wanting to just have one good day.

She also told me she can't believe how bad she feels and it seems to her other people who have had chemo do not feel as bad. She told me last night she will not live like this for the rest of her life, it is "no life". She said she j ust needs a good day every once in awhile.

She is not working, no way she could. Mom is 61 soon to be 62 and was diagnosed Aug 2011.

Any advice from anyone who has had similar symptoms or my stage 4 sisters would be helpful.

Thanks
KG
