This is going to be a hard road, but it sounds like you're in the right place to get support. I know some people who have gone through similar treatments and came out on the other side. I hope you can be one of them.
My dad had brain tumors and went through Carmustine treatment. He experienced severe headaches and a lot of fatigue. Some days he had a really tough time getting out of bed. But the docs managed his pain pretty well, once they adjusted the meds.
If hair loss happens, consider getting a wig or a hat while your hair regrow. Always easier to be more prepared then less.
I've been through this with my mom. She had some bad days with nausea and fatigue, but the doctors managed it with some additional meds. Stay strong and keep communicating with your healthcare team!
Carmustine is a heavy hitter, but it can be effective. Make sure you have a good support system in place, and listen to your body. If something doesn't feel right, speak up! Only you can truly say how you are feeling, your healthcare team should listen!
I had a similar experience with Carmustine. The nausea was the worst for me, but my oncologist prescribed some anti-nausea medication that really helped. Also, stay hydrated and rest as much as you can. Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it. Some days you feel awful, but others... you feel fine.
I've heard that some people find ginger tea or cannabinoid oil can help with the nausea. Worth a shot if the anti-nausea meds aren't cutting it. Good luck!
Glad to hear that you found this drug helpful, but holy cow the side effects sound brutal. I would hope that the severity of the cancer warrants the intense treatment. If not, you might want to look into alternative therapies.
I hope your treatment goes well. I've heard that Carmustine can be tough, but it's worth it. Just stay in touch with your medical team. They can help when things get rough.
I feel you on the side effects. It was particularly the rash and swelling for me. If you have any questions about side effects, ask your doctor for advice. The FDA has a system for reporting all kinds of side effects, too. Not sure if that helps, but incase the doctor doesn't help you out.
