how long does chemotherapy take for cervical cancer?
Question:
Answers:
I had cervical cancer, there are many stages and many different ways to recieve your treatments. In some cases it can be given in pill form. I had 6 chemo treatments, one every 3 weeks. I had 3 chemo treatments then 28 radiation treatments ( done in 28 days straight not count sat and sun) then 3 more chemo treatments. Which is what is done in most cases. Each treatment lasted 4 1/2 hours. All you do is sit in a recliner with an IV you can watch TV, read, most people sleep. If you are going for Chemo treatments, you are more then welcome to email me and I will give you more details. It really wasnt that bad (I know everyone is different) I never got sick once, I worked the whole time I had treatments, I only missed 5 days of work while I was getting treatments. And I had my doctor take me off for 3 of those I was working 10 hour days at the time and needed a break. There are alot of tips I can give you if you are going for treatments, and a few things I wish I had known the first time I went.
it depends on what stage the cancer is in. my aunt had cervical cancer and didnt get treated in time, but she did make it two years on chemo. hope that helps
