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.
