Guest guest Posted September 24, 2005 Report Share Posted September 24, 2005 Len, Thanks for reminding everyone that it is so important to keep yourself well hydrated while taking chemo. So important to get those chemicals flushed out. I am glad you are feeling better. Hope you continue feeling good throughout your chemo. Please come back and post more. Let us know how you are doing.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2005 Report Share Posted September 25, 2005 Len: Thank you so much for your message. I know I don't drink enough when on chemo because of the side effects of oxaliplatin (sensitivity to cold/neuropathy) and also because water tastes like poison. I didn't know how important it was until your post. Hope you are doing better. in California Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
