Hi, I had stage 3a grade 1 endometrial uterine cancer. I had six chemotherapies. They were carboplatin and taxol. I was in the treatment area for five to six hours each time. I went once every three weeks. Due to COVID, I was by myself the entire time, which was kind of scary, but it's okay. You can put people on speakerphone, and the nurses there were fantastic. They take care of me. Some of the side effects from the chemotherapy were neuropathy in my hands and feet where they went numb. I had some nausea, some dizziness, and fatigue. Bone pain was incredible, especially if you have arthritis anywhere. The chemo settles into the arthritis, which makes it really difficult for you. I recommend trying to walk as much as you can and to make sure you speak to your oncologist. They will give you medicines that will help you along the way.
