    Reid and Beth take a look at the symptoms Reid experienced. The biggest take away that Reid and Beth want to drive home is that each journey is different. You make experience all of these symptoms or none of them! The nurses and doctors do an incredible job of making sure to prepare you what can happen. That does not mean everything will hit you. Yes, there are common symptoms among all patients who are taking chemo, but it is not always as dramatic as TV shows make it.
