Details on Food & Shop; Chemo Is Over! A Day Off!

I seemed to get through chemo without any problems at all. That said, on the last day, I did feel motionless and I found swallowing a little bit more difficult, which felt a little bit like heartburn. I have to admit, my tea drinking entities felt a little bit on my final day of chemotherapy!

After the four days of chemotherapy finishes, you get a day off for your body to recover a little.

The video details the food at the clinic and what you can expect and when you can expect it. As a quick rundown, you get four meals a day and when you are in isolation one of those meals changes to two baked apples and a piece of meat. It sounds weird but it's actually just what you want! Anyway, this video details the food situation.




First of all, don't forget that there is a local shop that is about a 5-minute walk away (you will need to remember to take your paper permission to leave the hospital - always carry this with you if you are planning to pop out!). The shop has a large range of foodstuffs to offer and you really shouldn't need to go to a bigger shop. Heck, it even sold oat milk on the top right of the non-refrigerated milk section!




Here are some pictures of what you can expect full meals during your time in the clinic. If you are used to European style meals, then you'll have no problem. If that's not your bag, then you might find the food a bit troublesome and you will need to supplement it with your own. I know, for example, that the Scandinavians found it absolutely fine whilst a woman from Iran absolutely hated the food.
