The Chemo Chat with Maddy & Shannon

Get ready for some giggles this week on the pod! Maddy and Shannon have a solo episode and are talking all things chemo! First, Shannon shares her experience with R-EPOCH, how she had to do all of her treatments in the hospital, her regimen before going and what she packed for the hospital, the side effects she experienced and how being in the hospital during Covid was for her. Maddy’s up next sharing her experience with ABVD, finding a post-chemo regimen that worked for her, preparing for the first chemo treatment, her side effects from chemo, what the two weeks in between chemo treatments looked like and her favorite ways to stay distracted and busy during treatment. We hope these tips are helpful for anyone that’s preparing or currently going through chemo treatment, and of course that our stories bring some laughs! **Disclaimer: We are not healthcare professionals, please do not take any medical advice from this podcast and always check with your doctor.
