      From Cassiopeia April 5

      I've experienced more fear in the last 6 years than I can even describe... but I've learned that it is a waste of time. And life is way too short to live in fear! Be brave girl.. this will pass!

      just been diagnosed with hodgkin's lymphoma stage 3b. having chemo at the moment.

      Treatments

      ABVD Not Working
      felt awful almost instantly.. and burnt all my veins... almost a year on, im still in the same situation,....so i wouldnt really say it worked.
      Chemotherapy Not Working
      awful side effects...burnt all my veins... constant pain, sickness, the hair loss, the horrible smells and taste in ur mouth ...and all for nothing. i wish i never had this treatment. was all one big mistake. if i could go back and change anything, i would try out some alternative, natural treatments, before letting some hospital poison me for nothing.

      Keeping Busy Not Working
      nothing seems to work, and the more i try not to think about it, the worse it is when i remember again...
      Support from Friends & Family Somewhat Helpful
      i can always talk to my mum about anything, and i tell her literally 100% of what i think...but at the end of the day, no one can do anything about it, and although she supports me and tries to make me see that its pointless to be scared, i still find myself feeling like im trapped.
