The standard treatment for Diffuse Large B cell Lymphoma is Chemotherapy. My wife had been advised by our doctor to undergo this standard treatment as soon as possible just because this type of Lymphoma is an aggressive type. It can attack other part of the body without any warning or symptom until you feel sick. She had been suggested the R-CHOP regime for his Chemotherapy by her doctor.
Day 1: 15th of March 2013
My wife and I went to see the doctor to start the first cycle of Chemotherapy. She was admitted as out patient in day care ward. Before starting the R-CHOP regime my wife was given the anti-allergy drug. Her condition before and after the administered of the anti-allergy drug remain good.
After the Anti allergy drug, Then the first drug for the R-CHOP regime was given to my wife. There is no unusual sign shown by my wife. everything is good. Until finishing the whole dos of R-CHOP regime she was still in very good condition except that a bit dizzy but then she had been recovered.
The first day of her Chemotherapy had been good. She was discharge and prescribe with Prednisolone, Anti nausea, and Multivitamin. Doctor advise not to take any other herbal medicine prior to any consultation with him cause this might interfere with the treatment and might cause adverse effect to the patient. Another advice is to make sure that the environment where she were is Hygienic. Try to avoid places like markets, have distance with those that having Cough, Fever, Flu or any communicable diseases.
Day 2 until day 3 : 16th March until 18th March 2013
My wife condition remain good. She still having good apatite.( Most of the patient that undergo Chemotherapy had been reported to have lost of apatite)
Day 4 until day 6 : 18th March until 20th March.
The effect of the R-CHOP shown some sign. Her sense of taste start to gone but she still have apatite. She feel tasteless unless she consume something with the sour taste. The following days She feel pain at her throat area. I suspect it is sore throat as it is another side effect of the Chemotherapy. Last night she complaint of stomach paint and she went to pass s***. As expected, it is not as per normal solid but liquid. Is it Diarrhea? I am not certain. Diarrhea is a condition of a person passing watery stool frequently. In other words at least 3 time a day. From middle of last night until this morning (20th March 2013) she only had it once. Hopefully that is the only one time. Diarrhea is also one of the side effect of Chemotherapy.
