Wink Chemo 1st time tomorrow

Chemo has a bad rap, but every patient will not get every single side effect listed on print outs of information doctors pass out or on the drug company's website.
Everyone's body is different. Some folks will loose their hair. Some folks will not loose their hair. The same goes for every side effect listed. Your doctor can suggest things to help you for whichever side effect you do get.
If you share the name of the chemo I bet someone on this website has tried it and may be able to share her or his experience with you.
