    Has anyone had relationship problems due to personality changes caused by chemotherapy and/or radiation treatment???

     I did.  The chemoradiation therapy can make you feel anxious, upset, mad or lack of energy.  I once yelled at my mum when I tried to give myself a shot of Nupegen at home.  Though she didn't mind at all, I still feel sorry for that and for myself. 

    Get a big cushion ready at home, and beat it  if you experienced bad days or bad time.I bought one at BedBath & Beyond for $10.  Hahaha!

    Well your true friends care about what is going on with you. Sometimes people act different because face it ,its not like you just broke your arm and the cast is coming off in 6 weeks.Cancer is a word  and most people think of the past experince . Well I survived these days when just 10 years ago there was no hope. But it is important to have your family now what is going on and friends. They worry and I think it puts a strain on them all too. Believe it or not sometimes it's up to you to tell everyone you'll be ok to ease thier minds. Just thik positive and keep your chin up and a little prayer never hurt anyone. It is just your sick and evryone is trying to help you instead of you helping them. It probably isn't the chemo it's the stress , hang in there One day at a time.  GOOD LUCK  :) Mike
