I finished 15 days of PCI two months ag, and I think the side effects are worse now than they were 2 months ago. Extreme fatigue, nausea. Zofran is good. My Radiology/oncologist said there is no reason for me to be nauseated at this point, and I should be getting over the fatigue. However, my oncology nurse said sometimes these symptoms can last up to a year.
My husband has been very supportive until he hears these doctors say I shouldn't be having these problems. He tends to think it's psychological and even asked the doctor if it could be. Doctor said it could be. Just what I need on top of feeling so lousy. A husband & doctor that think I'm goofy besides.
When I hear these other postings saying they are feeling the same way, it makes me think maybe I am not crazy, although I am sorry for anyone else to be going through the same. I may hve to start chemo again next week, and can hardly tolerate the idea feeling the way I do with this other stuff. Sorry to sound so dismal. I have been very optimistic until now.
