Hi im from South Africa and i started chemo on the 1/11/23. I was diagnosed with stage 2 breast cancer. Thank you for your advice and insights.

@marcia-ww8xu 5 месяцев назад

My advice is not to get sucked into being scared. Chemo wasnt half as bad as i orig thought. Just drink a ton of water every few hours and hydrate the heck out of yourself...it will carry the stuff put of the bod faster. And please shave ur head like i did. I looked pretty good. Its a good exp to have a shaved head. Keeps u humble

@MarinaBlackford 5 месяцев назад

Hi! Thank you for sharing! I think it’s good for others to see this from someone else. Chemo can be what you make it. Just have faith that it’s working and you have some control in your life. Blessings to you.

Hello Marina thank you for your videos. My mother was diagnosed with high grade urothelial carcinoma at the beginning of March and just this tuesday she started chemo. Seeing her everyday in pain and sad, and depressed it brakes my heart. I always come to your channel for tips and guidance. I pray my mother can be cancer free one day and you as well!❤️🙏🏼

I am lucky to live in Australia 🇦🇺 My chemo treatment is free at my local hospital . 💫 The only thing I pay for is a new anti nausea pill called " Akynzeo" . It is optional to take this but is recommended . 💫 If I don't take this the staff said I can take a weaker tablet called "maxalon " .. I take one capsule of " Akynzeo" , one hour before each chemo session and I get charged $7.30 per capsule . 💊 It is meant to stop nausea for about 4 days after taking it . ✨ I have had 5 sessions of chemo so far and have not felt sick at all . I have 2 different chemo drugs given to me at each session... Paclitaxel and Carboplatin .

@charmainekruger4280 4 месяца назад

Hello Marina, thank you for your videos...... I started with chemo last week and fortunately no nausea has set it, although I ate much less. Day 3 my whole body was in so much pain, day 4 it was in my lower back and my legs, day 5 the pain is still in my hips and worse in my legs. I rest quite a bit but do get up to do some movement exercises with my legs, but nothing seems to take the pain away, I have been spraying with Arnica Spray as well. I am 68 yrs of age. What can I do with the pain in my legs?

@MarinaBlackford 4 месяца назад

Hi! I’m so sorry to hear this. Definitely ask your medical team. Maybe they can change your dose or adjust your steroid premed to help you. I hope you’re feeling relief soon.

Reading so much on fasting through chemo to lessen side affects. Dr Walter Longo has a mimicking diet, extremely low calorie. Has anyone tried? Thank you kindly

@MarinaBlackford 11 месяцев назад

I’d have to do my research on this. But thank you for asking. Maybe someone else can comment back to you. I am interested in learning more. I always encourage people pay attention to how their body feels through chemo and if it feels better to eat or not eat. I believe fasting can help with some situations but we all respond differently.

@katyfullard4838 11 месяцев назад

What is the diet??

@lf7065 8 месяцев назад

Many of us are already frail with weight loss and should most definitely not fast during chemo or radiation. We need all the nourishment we can get!!!

@MarinaBlackford 11 месяцев назад

Hi, thank you for watching. I hope my tips can help you. The good news here is that you have a chance to beat your cancer. Hold onto that hope. If you lose your hair, your chemo is working. It’s a hard reality to except. I pray you have for healing though.

@kristiegao7088 2 года назад

Hi Marina！I appreciate your sharing - that helped a lot! I am going to get radiation and it cause me anxiety... I had BC surgery that removed 19 lymph nodes from my armpit and they say that radiation increases the risk of getting lymphedema. What did you do to prevent from getting lymphedema? And does radiation have risks to damage my heart and lung? Thanks!

@MarinaBlackford 2 года назад

Hi Kristie! Make sure to check out my radiation videos. I share some tips there for the skin. I did not have a high risk for lymphedema due to not having many lymph nodes removed. I know one of your oncology doctors or nurses can prescribe a compression sleeve to help prevent lymphedema though. There is risk of damage to the lungs and heart from radiation. Your radiation team will have you hold your breath to help prevent this. This process comes down to what type of cancer you have, what's the best way to get rid of it all with the least chance of reoccurrence and if you're okay with the side effects. Everything is your choice and you should voice your concerns so you feel comfortable moving forward with your treatment.

Bad advice to eat any kind of sugar even honey when one has cancer.

@MarinaBlackford Год назад

I would never advise anyone to eat sugar. That is up to them. “Sugar” aka cane sugar more so is inflammatory in the body. Honey is not. I found 2 peer reviewed medical articles stating honey has anti cancer properties and actually aids Tamoxifen in killing breast cancer cells. Link here: www.journalsmededu.pl/index.php/OncoReview/article/view/1744/1680
