Hi, I'm new here. I had a gallbladder removal 2 months ago and they found a tumor growing through the wall. I start chemo tomorrow. Does anyone know what to expect or have any tips to prepare? I dont know anything going into this. Thank you in advance!

Starting chemotherapy can feel overwhelming, especially when facing it for the first time. Many people in this community have shared that having a support person accompany you to appointments, staying hydrated, eating light meals beforehand, and preparing comfort items at home can help make the experience more manageable. The community here has a wealth of experience with gallbladder cancer treatments, so don't hesitate to share how things go and ask any questions that come up along the way.
