What to Expect During Chemotherapy
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 кві 2014
- Before your first chemotherapy treatment, you may feel a range of emotions: anxiety, fear, or perhaps even eagerness to get started. Knowing what to expect will allow you to face the experience with greater calm and confidence. Hear from a patient in treatment, doctors, nurses and loved ones about the reality of the chemotherapy process.
Chemotherapy, often referred to simply as chemo, is the treatment of cancer with medications that can destroy cancer cells. Chemotherapy works by interfering with the way cancer cells divide, preventing the cancer from spreading and helping to get rid of cancer cells in the body.
Our goal at the Maimonides Cancer Center is to provide our patients and their families with the highest quality care. This includes administering the necessary treatments as well as providing the education and support needed throughout these treatments.

Cucumber water helps with the metallic taste if water. Bless the one who mentioned that tip..just passing it by for anyone else...💖
How do i do the cucumber water
I'm a 9 year survivor and counting. I was under 30 and my daughter was just 2 years old. A positive attitude is the most important thing. And I'm now ready to share my cancer journey on my channel if anyone wants to know what I went through and how I overcame it all. You CAN too.
God Bless you Mate
I have had 2 treatments . The first was the hardest because I didn't knowwhat to expect. I was so paranoid about all the possible side effects. My oncologist worked with me to help me reduce the side effects and I feel much more optimistic k owing what to expect and how to deal with it.
Everyone's advice was to advocate for myself. Ask questions. Ask for help. Let other people do favours for you. Knowing people are there to help is essential. I am single and live alone and don't really have family. The kindness and generosity of people is amazing.
🙏😇
We are going to surgery is it good for future? Please reply
Don't give up, it is easier to say than doing it...
When you have cancer yourself and have to go through chemotherapy, then you will experience all the sufferings and anxiety...
I had and is waiting for miracle to happen to me...
The feeling and knowledge that there is nothing I can do to change things is bad, I can only hope for the best outcome and for this cancer to never return...
Marcusof sillypoor stay Strong
I wish you the best. I too had cancer. You must fight to stay alive.
Stay strong Dear...
May God send you help imediately.....
You are right friend. But belief and determination helps in some cases, but hope is the final resort.
Me roo through my ALL and neuroblastoma im just so beat, anxious and have so much pain. Losing your hair at 5 through 9 and 11 is rough :/
Loved what these people had to say: The Nurse Practioner, the man and his wife. Very comforting.🥀
Ngl I'm so scared, I just got diagnosed a few days ago and I'm so sorry for what my family is going to go through, I don't even know how I should feel about this
Me too friend! I'm scared and worried but I'm trying to trust the process. We're gonna get through this! 💖
Very Big many loss this tharpy 🤣🤣🙏🙏👍
I’m a 2 time cancer survivor. First diagnosed when i was 12 and second time i was 15. This is a good video on how to “cope” with chemotherapy. Not really the aspect on what you “feel”. My chemo experience was awful. I was depressed, not allowed to go to school because of low blood counts, neulasta shots (WHICH ARE THE WORSTS); i have never gone through so much pain from this shot, the shot itself doesn’t hurt, but the effects..... HOLY SHIT.. I felt PARALYZED. This video makes you wanna feel good about chemo. Chemo is hell, it’s awful and i don’t wish my worst enemy to go against it. It’s so bad. Stay healthy peeps
I’m going through Hodgkin’s right now and it sucks, and I loved hearing your story it hit me hard
Any tips on how to avoid it?
I’m about to go through chemo myself. Thanks for the advice
@@oscarbustillo4451 dont get cancer

Its been 8 years since my Uncles passing and i miss him dearly words cannot describe the amazing man,father,person he was! Truly a warrior with a fighting spirit you cant imagine i hope one day to Be half the man he was! Life is such a blessing and we need to be grateful for every moment we have because we never know when our last moments will be ! To my Uncle Charlie i love you Man Thank you for teaching me so much and all the amazing times we will meet again one day in VALHALLA !!! 08/30/1955 - 10/26/2014
going for my first oncology visit on monday 4th { glasgow scotland } very good video
I’m sorry for your loss of Uncle Charlie…he seems like a lovely man. And Aunt Leslie as well. ❤️
I really hate it when I get told to have “reasonable expectations”. It makes me think... what aren’t you telling me. Getting suddenly random junk mail from funeral and cremation services doesn’t help either.
How are you doing these days?

Thank you for giving me that extra bit of hope that my mom will be okay 💓
This video is so important. I am glad there is such attention and care given to patients in terms of technology. In 2014, high quality videos that can be streamed onto a smartphone, tablet,or computer are the new way of giving care.
Moving images, voices and the faces of those faces are so important to feeling comfort during a trying time for such patients.
I only have the ability to like this video, but if I could - I'd "Super-Like" it.
Great job!
I feel like I've just joined a special club. After being diagnosed two weeks ago I've been on a roller coaster but abstained from Dr.Google. Now I know what the plan is so I'm now researching what I can expect.
Thanks for posting!
Amen Praise God 🙏🙏🙏

I have my first chemotherapy in the infusion center in a few days, and I am terrified. This will be the second infusion, the first was given in the hospital. I shouldn’t be so scared of the next session, but I am not handling it all as well as everyone thinks.
I’m right there with you!! Hang in there…
Oh dear, I hope you are fine now!!
Hi there how are you how did you feel and what were the side effects
Lord I lift this person up to you. Help them with their anxiety before, during and after treatment.
Just breathe when the anxiety hits. Long exhales and take every day one day at a time. ❤
I have managed to go through the treatment and the after affects and discomfort and operations very well and very bravely, far better than most people could, so far. But when it comes to asking for help and getting people to co-operate, yes that is when it is a problem.... because of the fact that the people that helped me *had no f*cking clue what they were doing* and *they argued with each other and with me about how to go about it all* and some people made a total mess of everything. So yes, the most difficult part is asking people for help, that's for damn sure!
Watch from 5:15. Really good advice from there !!

Excellent video and well put. Stay in the fight, but learn relaxing is number 1!
I'm sure you mean well. but chemotherapy is a poison derived from mustard gas. Please do your research.
@@Josh.c.2468 thank you, but I too had chemo for breast cancer. Not what I wanted, but what research and family history called for. I also am learning how to relax. Keeping us all lifted in prayer.
@@cdlady54_95 you do realise that this so called cancer treatment only keeps your cancer in remission does not cure anybody sorry to say this but it can come back even worse. But there are some people out there who had low doses, meaning the chemo wasn't high enough to calls internal bleeding. You are very lucky if I was you I will be eating as healthy as possible too stop the cancer from spreading and hopefully repair the damaged that chemo has done to your body. I wish you well but please don't tell people that chemotherapy will help them because you are very mistaken as am sure you know the history of cancer treatments. Peace out.
My dad starts tomorrow. I’m so nervous and worried for him. He’s dealing with a few brain tumors in different parts of his brain. The doctors don’t know if they are cancerous or not, but they are doing chemo and radiation anyway. We are very lucky because he will be taking the chemo pill instead of doing a normal treatment (IV). Does anyone know more about the pill and the side effects? are the side effects the same as the ones described in the videos? Also, will the radiation make chemo more painful/will there be more side effects?
I’m really scared, I’m only 14 and i’ve never had to deal with anything like this before. I’ve always heard about things like this happening to other families. But i’ve never imagined it happening to mine. This all just hit me way too hard.
Marlena Gutshall my dad is getting his first chemo tomorrow, I’m 38, he’s 71. I know how you feel, but stay positive as much as you can sweetheart. I know that you want to cry in front of your daddy, but if they see us sad, the. They will be sad too. Cry when you need to, let it all out, talk to someone so you don’t feel good ok. Maybe you can talk to your parents so they can explain it to you better. Or read about it too. I wish your daddy nothing but the best, our dads are “FIGHTERS”, we got to cheer them on, and stay positive for them ok honey. Make him happy notes, inspire him to keep fighting. I just mailed cards and pictures so my dad can be happy when he sees we are there for him. I wish you lots of strength, and many blessings ok. Good luck. 🤍😇🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
🌻☘️Green Eyes☘️🌻 Thanks for your kind reply. Unfortunately my dad passed away last Thursday. He was diagnosed with Glioblastoma cancer which is known as being the most brutal type of cancer. Glioblastoma is also un-curable. My family and I brought him home after the diagnosis and he spent two weeks at home with all of his family and friends. He died very peacefully surrounded by family.
I’m so sorry to give you this unfortunate news. Please never give up hope and tell your dad to fight for the both of us. I wish him and your family the best of luck and am sending all of my strength to you and your dad. Stay strong please.
Marlena Gutshall so sorry to hear about you loss, it sucks when it goed so fast. I am starting my first round of chemo on monday and I am 27 years old. But I am really optimistic and I will get through this and beat cancer out of my body. Stay strong 💪🏼
personally I wouldn't be undergoing chemo unless they were sure it was cancer, but you have to go by what your doctors are telling you.
@@ixography I REALLY HOPE U BEAT THAT SUCKER UP!!!
I’ve seen what chemo has done to my grandma if I get cancer I’ll just accept that I’ll die
You're kidding. If somebody told me the truth I wouldn't have SHOWN up
Cancer is a very lucrative business, I meant disease.
😴😴
yup, and I don't feel like some doctors are completely honest with people!!
There are enough sick people who need help without this conspiracy theory for money to be made. If what you say were at all true some doctor somewhere would have been turned on (by another who actually knows) and it would be out there as cited evidence by now. Any doctor that kept someone sick would have lost their license immediately.
@@jeremyanderson3035 Wow what a dumb ass comment ! Any doctor that kept anyone sick would lose their license???? YOU really believe that B.S !!! Let me tell you the medicines they give us is fckn poison, they give you one med and it causes 3 horrible side effects so there fore they put you on more meds for the side effects! Doctors make a fortune by prescribing these drugs, they are paid big money for keeping people sick not curing them .Smh
@Daven Storm I see you are a connoisseur of Kool Aid from this well thought out and based response. Thank you for the lolz
It would be the Nausea and Vomiting would be the worst part of it for me by far.
How you can deal with it ?
My dads having chemo tomorrow
Did they give you any medication for the nausea?? Also my dads trying to be positive about it all I’m scared and worried
I feel like he lost a lot of his eyebrow hairs. And lost weight. Tomorrow is his first chemo
How are you going
i've always wondered how does chemo feel
2 hours to the better part of the day ? ... what that even means 😳
Means: if you didn’t get your labs done a few days before you go for treatment, you have to wait until your lab results come back so they can start anything. Means: if your port usually clogs up and they can’t flush it out with saline, then they have to inject an anticoagulant into your port and you have to wait 30 minutes for the clog to go away, if not they inject it again and check every fifteen minutes to see if it’s ready. It means: if you complain that you think you’re having an allergic reaction to the chemo, they have to stop everything, call the pharmacist to come check you out, give you more antihistamine, wait another 30 minutes, then try again and see how it goes this time. Then add to that the approximate 2 hours it takes to get the infusion. Basically, if everything goes well, you’re out in around 2 hours, if not 🤷🏽♀️ the better part of a day, say 10am until 7pm for us 🤓 true story. Happening every two weeks.

Thank god, i don’t have cancer nor any symptoms of it, however i keep watching these cancer or chemotherapy video’s and i’m 24/7 thinking about cancer. Hopefully my mind is wrong though haaha
NourrRefaei it’s important to stop worrying about it, believe your healthy
You should ask yourself why you're so obsessed with this. Don't ruin your health and happiness by doing that to yourself. It's horrible when you are faced with cancer (I know, I am facing it now). Do not waste another moment of your time doing that to yourself. Find a healthy hobby, take care of yourself and chances are you will be fine. Nothing funny about your obsession (I refer to your haha at the end of your comment) - you may need professional help for these obsessive thoughts.

The more you research the better treatment may appear to eradiacte cancer.
Is it still necessary to submit my 81 years mom for chemotherapy for breast Cancer?
That is something you need to discuss with both your mother, and with her doctor. It all depends on your mother's wishes.
Ask your mother. Perhaps at her age she doesn't want to go thru the agony of the treatments, or perhaps she does. It's really up to her. She's 81 and if she has her full mental faculties it should be her choice based on all the information she can garner.
here's my only issues as a 24 year old going to be going through chemo sometime soon.
last 2 appointments 299 and 399.
bank account, 18$.
credit card, 130 past due, 33 available credit, 4,500 to pay off.
will I be able to work while going through chemo, or will this severely hinder my ability to do what needs to be done.
cancer is no less than another thing, but I do not want to pass my debt to anyone.

Is this normal to feel weakness and unhealthy after the theropy? My mom had theropy a week back..she still feels weakness..
And
Can person completely recover from stage 2 breast cancer?
It is completely normal for a person to feel weak after therapy . This is because chemotherapy wipes out all types of cells , healthy cells and the cancerous cells . So , naturally the immune system will be knocked down as well . It is perfectly fine to feel weakness , I am sending lots of love to your mom and I am praying for her 💗☺️
@@yuni_strawberi Thank you 😍, Any idea what diet can help to recover?
@@syednadeem7294 I’m not sure about that haha , please consult your mom’s doctor
@@syednadeem7294 I hope your mom is doing well. I did some research on cancer because my dad is fighting cancer right now. You may want to research regional chemotherapy (it is not painful and has less side effects but is not always a good idea like anything else), oncolytic viruses, cancer vaccines (those activate immune system to kill cancer, not just prevent it). The viruses are the most modern area if research, every self respecting research center is probably working on that these days, but in some countries you can already get it ( e.g. Germany)
Just finished 4 treeatments. For me it was awful. I choose quality over quantity of life.
Chemo treatments only prolong suffering and then the patient still ends up dying!!!
This is an absolutely horrible response. If that was your experience, I am sorry for you. However, there are many who have hope in to live full vibrant lives. Everyone’s situation is different.
I am astonished at the non compassionate matter of factness of the narrators. These people don't care. I sometimes wonder how they would act if the shoe was on the other foot. These people are insolent.
Please avoid chemo if you can! Glutathione is a great supplement to detox liver and our body, and also don't forget to supplement various amino acids after chemo depleting the nutrition storage of our body!
Yam Liu, Your advice is terrible!
@@JulieR73 Dear Jules, why saying so? I've experienced chemo - it's really toxic and the process is painful. Targeted medicine or immuno therapy with least side effects would be much better. You definitely don't want to lose nails and hair and ability to reproduce.
