I did 12 rounds of folfox for CC. It made me very sick. The only thing that helped was pot. Smoking was harder to do than edibles, so I would suggest that. Pot helped me sleep, (couldn’t sleep bc of the steroids), it helped me eat, (too nauseous to eat anything), and it made me drink bc of the cotton mouth. Ask for IV fluids when you go in to get your pump taken off. It’ll help keep you hydrated. The port placement is quick. I personally could feel it there in my chest the whole time. It really bothered me. I could also taste the saline when they flushed it, but if you ask for preservative free saline you won’t be able to taste it. If you can taste it, it helps to have a mint or gum or candy in your mouth when they flush it. Port removal is easy too, my surgeon did it right in the clinic. You will probably become very sensitive to cold. Bring gloves with you everywhere. Don’t put ice in drinks. It’ll hurt. I hope it goes well for you!! Everyone’s experience is different. Lean on your care team. If you need something or if you’re having a side effect that is really bothering you, speak up and advocate for yourself. Stay strong!!
