Hi x-sand

Welcome to the BCC Forum.  I’m sure other members will soon be along to offer you some support.

You might also find it helpful to give our Helpline a call.  They will be able to offer you practical information and emotional support.  They are open from 9-5 on weekdays and 10-2 on Saturdays.  The number is 0808 800 6000.  ( The Helpline will not be open on Saturday May 16th due to an equipment upgrade )

You might be interested in the Chemo monthly threads begun by members who started their chemo in the same month.  I’ve attached a link to the May group:
