I just heard that some people may be
afraid to touch me due to the residue the chemotherapy treatment may live on me.
It hurt and scared me. In fact, I did not do any research on what effect I may
have on others. The nurse said that there is no problem, but looking for
information on Google, I realized that this is not that simple and I came to a
conclusion that wish to be more considerate and careful about some things.
I found out, however that internet
cannot be the source of reliable information at all times, but for 72 hours
after the treatment I am getting rid of the chemical effects on my body. From
the personal experience I know that the symptoms of nausea last much longer at
times, but perhaps rinsing off the residue through the toilet may follow the
rule. I am now reluctant to use the public toilets, but this may not be able to
avoid. So I am in some way contaminated and may be a discomfort to others. This
is difficult to live with for quite a considerable time. I believe however that
I can be safely hugged, and be with, so I will not go into any panic or
restrictions.
