Hi, started first chemo treatment yesterday and already feel ‘s…’. Feel sick and tight pain in chest - started last night with shortness of breath. Went to A&E who did ECG and chest x-ray. Luckily all clear. just wanted to know if anybody else has felt as rubbish as I do today?
Thanks Pam
Hi Pam
Sorry to hear chemo has made you feel so unwell.
I felt rough after chemo 3 and 5 each chemo has been different. I have last chemo next week!!!
I also have experienced lots of breathlessness apparently due to a low red blood count!!! but not chest pain.
Just really wanted to sympathize with you, and let you know you are not alone.

I have terrible chest pain … I guess it is indigestion… feels like I have swallowed something that caught between breast and won’t go down!
If you think its indigestion - which I had bad with chemo - get your gp to prescribe omeprazole - that should sort it out.
Hope it clears soon

Hi Pam
Have recently had my first FEC and also experienced chest pains and palpitations which were a bit scary at first, once i tried to relax they did subside slightly. Hope you feel a bit better today
