Hi Sabs – I am 43 and on cycle 4. If it’s any consolation, I have been completely wiped out from the cumulative effect of the chemo for VTD. I find it incredibly frustrating as I have an 8 and 5 year old as well as a senior legal job and am now faced with doing less than a third of what I could cope with before. I haven’t had nausea but horrendous constipation for days. Before this the only time i’d Set foot in a hospital was to have my children! It is really frustrating – I feel like a failure that I am so constantly exhausted, and my 5 year old just keeps asking why Mummy is a massive lazy bones!11. I think you just can’t tell how it hits you but I like your husband am responding well to my light chain reduction which started at 4,000 – 6,0000 and is now down to 8. Maybe that explains the utter wipe out. I am now heading towards my stem cell. Good luck with your journey. Hopefully we’ll get through and have some good years of remission!
