hi all, my mum had 4th chemo (carb) last tuesday, they said she needed a blood transfusion the next day 3 bags of blood for her red cells, they never explained why, mind you they never explain much, they said chemo is working, and cancer has shrunk, first it was non operable, but now its looking good she may be able to have an op to remove large mass if scan looks ok, next week (please god let it be ok), she has very advanced cancer bless her, i thought after transfusion she would be so energetic, but shes not, she feels very low, crying, and generally under the weather and sick, and just so fatigued, does anyone know is this due to chemo, blood transfusion, this disease or maybe a mixture of everything? as they said it was all working, i thought after 4th round of chemo she would be feeling much better, its so horrible to see someone you love so much go through all of this isnt it? im so sorry to ask all these questions, but doctors dont seem to answer any, i would be most grateful for all your fantastic knowledge. xx
