[@neelamchowdhry3829]

Hi, I am from India. I was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. and had to go through Chemo for 4 months. I went through all what you are mentioning here. Today, by God's grace, I am out of it and on my way to recovery. Be strong and have faith in HIM!

Dee, as a physician, living in the U.S., I cannot help but commend your wonderful approach to this most frightening medical experience. Your suggestions are not only practical, but, your light-hearted approach will certainly lessen the fear that these experiences generate. Thank you for sharing your most intimate experiences. I am sending you some of my warmest Hugs, and prayers for a joyous life. Blessings:)

Hi, my wife Wendy started last Thursday with the A/C treatment. Every night since Friday night she has been having the worst headaches and puking. Has anyone else been going thru this with treatment? Thanks Joshua and Wendy

[@severeestimate9361]

Wendy has been taking many things to help with the headaches but the one thing that helps Sumatriptan the Dr says she can't take more the 2-3 days. I didn't hear the 2nd drug they gave you for your headaches Dee... Could you please respond or if someone else knows what it is... Thank you again! Peace and love!

I’ve been battling stage 4 metastatic breast cancer since 2014. I lost my long hair after my 2nd chemo treatment. No one understood me when I said “my hair hurts”. Just barely touching my scalp made me flinch. Thank you for sharing your journey. I’ll be on treatment the rest of my life. Every 3 weeks and PET Scans every 3-4 months. I keep my hair short now because it’s easier to manage. You’re beautiful and may God bless you always 🙏🏼🦋💜

Not knowing you prior to your chemo, I naturally have no idea what you looked like. This is the first video by you that I have watch. Believe it or not you are really attractive with a bald head. You have a great personality and attitude. I am here because I have had issues for 24 years and returned an abnormal pap test last month. I have been under a gynie/oncologist review the entire time. I have had excisions along the way which have kept everything at bay . At present, I am waiting for the results of two biopsies that were taken last week. I am preparing for the worse, for the first time. I have always believed if you expect the worse, it may not be so bad. I do know that being informed does make life easier. So thanks for all your tips and all the best. I live in Australia btw.

Lyn R oh I’m so sorry Lyn. I really am hoping for the best for you! The best thing I can say is my doctor told me they come back to you within 48hrs if they have bad news!! Fingers crossed!

[@Lyn4817]

@@DeeDoherty Thanks for taking the time to get back to me. I shouldn't have said anything but the anxiety is building up. I was told last week that the tests would take eight to ten days. Tomorrow is Sunday and day six. They said a Registrar would call me with the results. Right from the start last week, my appointment had originally booked for 3.20pm. Until I got a phone call to get in as soon as I could, I was able to get there by 1pm and everything was over by 2.45pm. So unlike you, I have been prioritised, mind where I live now which is a different State to where this journey started, I have been getting reviewed annually at his hospital for eleven years. I have had four previous excisions but they were all external, this is internal for the first time. From past episodes, if it is precancerous it will mean surgery immediately and of course if it is cancer, then I guess I will be running on hospital time for awhile. Regardless, I only live ten minutes from the hospital. I do know more about the cancer journey than most as i nursed my mother through her malignant parotid tumour, eight years ago. She had a shocking time at 77 but she is a survivor, so far. Cheers and again, thanks for your time. How are you going with your journey? I really hope you are in full remission and stay there.

[@arleneorozco0326]

I pray you all a safe and speedy recovery. My father (daddy), got Burkitts lymphoma cancer and he’s had sooo many procedures done lately.😩😭 He has had two biopsy’s, a port put in his chest, the next day he had a bone marrow biopsy. And yesterday he got admitted to the hospital in order to have his chemotherapy and a spinal chemotherapy today. Yesterday was his first chemotherapy, I live in Phoenix, and nobody can be with him in the hospital, since all of this coronavirus is happening. So my Mama, is sad at home, she’s always with him, they have 45 years married, so it’s very hard seeing them go through all of this and I’m 7 hours away. Please help me with any advice, I don’t want my daddy to die. I need him so much. I’m a daddy’s girl, 38 year old. And I love him so much. God bless you all battling with cancer. Many blessings. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🤍🤍🤍🤍💚💚💚💚💚

[@helenbreakiron6001]

Thank you for making this video..... I knew I was going to loose my hair, but seeing it come out at such a fast rate shocked me..... I thought I was going crazy feeling like my "hair" hurt. Nobody understood. God bless..... ❤ prayers.

[@karenstockage4091]

Thank you on my 2nd round of chemotherapy and having problems with dealing with my hair and afraid .and nausea is the worst.. .you are beautiful 💪

[@ninadaggett]

Thanks for your video. I’ve been through a couple rounds of chemo this year and had a bone marrow transplant. I found it it interesting you explaining about the exfoliater, I just ordered one online so when I get home I could use it but I didn’t think about it irritating my skin.

[@Pkaistan]

What kind and stage was your cancer I hope u r getting better now God bls u

[@gilliandossett310]

Thank you for sharing your experiences with everyone, you are a brave lady and I admire your courage , you put into words what I needed to here as going through chemo and about to loose my hair and was in tears hearing about what’s going to happen, but it’s a good thing as it’s preparing me for the next week when my hair will start to fall out !! Skin care is good advice again thank you , and thank you so very much for putting this out there your an inspiration!!

Thank you. Will be starting Chemo 29th Aug 2018.

Varonica Bryant I start mine tomorrow and I'm quite nervous...I really am!

[@ninadaggett]

Good luck to you both!! ❤️

[@archanathakur20]

I start mine right after my lumpectomy on the 27th of September. Good luck and much 💕

[@geminigem599]

Archana Thakur how are u feeling sister?

[@archanathakur20]

I am recovering well from the lumpectomy and the sentinel node biopsy :) The good news is there is no cancer in the three nodes that they extracted and surgery had negative margins, so no more surgery required :D. My chemo begins 4 weeks after 27th September, so as of now waiting for that. Thank you so much for checking in with me

[@nancyrebecca]

Super helpful. Starting Chemo therapy this week for the first time and now I have my shopping list. I loved your description of cutting or shaving your head before the hair starts falling out because emotionally as well as feeling sick, you did not have the band width to deal with it later. I will take this advice.
