Before Your Visit

Complete baseline investigations — blood counts, kidney and liver function, echocardiography if needed
Get a dental check-up — dental infections during chemotherapy can become serious
Discuss fertility preservation before starting treatment — sperm/egg banking should happen first
Arrange support for treatment days — bring a companion, as sessions can last 2-6 hours

During the Appointment

Stay hydrated — drink 2-3 litres of water on chemotherapy days to protect kidneys
Take anti-nausea medications as prescribed — prevention is better than treating established nausea
Report fever above 100.4°F immediately — febrile neutropenia is a medical emergency during chemo
Eat small frequent meals — cold or room temperature foods are often better tolerated

After the Visit

Avoid crowded places for 7-14 days after each cycle when immunity is lowest
Monitor for mouth sores — use prescribed mouth rinses and soft bland diet
Keep a symptom diary to discuss at next visit — helps adjust supportive medications
Complete the full course of treatment — stopping early reduces effectiveness
