How to prepare for chemotherapy - breast cancer || Rachel Clifton - Dr Liz O'Riordan

How to prepare for chemotherapy - breast cancer || Rachel Clifton - Dr Liz O'Riordan
In this episode of ‘So Now I’ve Got Breast Cancer’, I got to ask all your chemo questions to Rachel Clifton. Rachel was my Macmillan Oncology CNS when I worked as a consultant at Ipswich. She’s passionate about raising the profile of secondary breast cancer and she’s been a nurse advisor for Holby City
And in this episode we discuss 👇🏽
- What to expect when you have chemo
- Cold Capping and hair loss
- How to fight the fatigue
- Can you still have a social life
Plus much more…
I wish I’d been able to listen to this before I started chemo back in 2015.
There’s also the weekly poem from Donna Ashworth

Brilliant interview. I would like to add, if you can, keep a journel so you can look back and see how you were the previous month, because you won't remember. I did this and it was very helpful. Best wishes 😊

I humbly appreciate your kind gesture Dr.Auchi on KZbin channel, You was able to help me with my health issues, the breast cancer disease was something the world thought has no cure but I’m happy to say today that I’ve been cured with your herbs and I’m glad to have you as my doctor…

So my TCH chemo (6 rounds) and then 9 months of TDMI and very often my temp would fall to 34° - 35° and they never really bothered with me bringing it up, your thoughts? My veins performed beautifully all the way through and still good, even after surgery and only one side used.. The BONE PAIN WAS ABSOLUTELY DIABOLICALLY AWFUL and was so unwell and unable to call for help help!!!!

I've just come across your brilliant channel, having just had breast surgery. I'm trying to find out more about invasive lobular carcinoma, and wondered if you would consider doing a video on it specifically? Thanks so much.

[@DrLizORiordan]

I'm just editing a video as we speak that I'll be posting in the next few weeks x

Women over 50 get Prosigna and other tests to know if the chemo will benefit or not. What decides for those who are younger? Specifically for hormone positive and HER2 negative. Thanks

[@deborahcollard4560]

I have been informed that my breast cancer tumour which was DCIS HER2 neg was combined with sarcoma. Is this unusual? Ten percent of the tumour was sarcoma.

[@DrLizORiordan]

Yes this is unusual
