How do you get past the fear of chemo?
I am writing this from my own experience. I am a 2x breast cancer survivor and had chemo both times. I got over my fear by thinking it will kill the cancer and I will live. I have a supporting husband and great doctors and nurses. Chemo is not as bad as it used to be many years ago. There are many drugs available now to counteract some of the side effects. Also everybody is different, side effects can be minimal. Chemo is not easy, but it kills the cancer. If you are the person that fears chemo go to the American Cancer Societys website and look for a chat room for the perticular cancer that you need chemo for, read some of the Q and A that patients and survivors post it will be of great help. The more you know the better the understanding. YOU will survive.
How long can a person survive by taking chemo that has leukemia?
The length of time it takes to die from leukemia varies greatly. It really depends upon how advanced the illness is, how much of the body it has spread to, the overall health of the patient, and a number of other factors. Some patients die within a few weeks of diagnosis, while others die years later, or don't die from the illness at all.

I have been taking various forms of chemotherapy for 3 years, and recently at a doctor's appointment found out that I am two inches shorter than I was before chemo. I have some cancer in my spine and have had back pain the past 6 months, so that may also be a factor. I am 30 years old, by the way.
