Chemo brain fog has been a debilitating side effect. I can't function. Everyone is very frustrated with me. I am unable to take my medications by myself and I even overdosed on a diarrhea medicine. Which is my second worse side effect!!!

I completely understand as I don’t have anyone to talk to also. I’m a widow & I live alone. My oldest son died in 2021 & my youngest son & his family live 3 hours. My father is dead & my mother has chronic back pain & is immobile. My younger sister lives with our mother & she is going through a divorce from her husband who abandoned her. My sister doesn’t visit me, help me, call me & rarely texts me. I have various cousins, a niece & nephew that are spread out in nearby states but are hours away from me. After I told my friends I had cancer, they quit contacting me. I have learned how to be my own care giver. It has been very difficult. I’ll admit I’ve been depressed, cried a lot, felt sorry for myself but I never gave up. I prayed & read my Bible everyday. Then I found cancer groups online like this one where I could share what I was going through & got empathetic responses. That really kept me going. I hope you find someone to talk to but I highly recommend the online cancer chat groups.

Hello everyone,
How are you doing today?
Sometimes treatments come with side effects, the treatment may cause other health issues or concerns. Cancer treatment is intense and it can affect other parts of your body.
What did you have to sacrifice for your cancer treatment? Is there another part of your body suffering as you treat the cancer cells?
