Guest guest Posted August 24, 2006 Report Posted August 24, 2006 Dear Marissa, You sound like such a lovely lady....I am so sorry you are having to deal with breast cancer at such an early age. You mentioned a couple of side effects that your doctor could help you with if you are interested. The constant burping, etc. is definitely caused by the chemo - tell your onc about it and he/she will recommend a med to counteract your gas. And, there is never " too much info " . We've heard it all, been through it all, and you are free to discuss anything and everything. The irritability is probably the result of your hormones going crazy from the chemo induced menopause - not to mention the emotional impact of dealing with bc. My onc prescribed anti-depressants which helped me immensely. You might want to consider asking your doc abou t that, too. Please take good care - blessings to you and your son, Ann Chemo Hats: www.cjhats.com --------------------------------- Talk is cheap. Use Yahoo! Messenger to make PC-to-Phone calls.
