Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Cancer is a challenging condition and you must fight it. It is normal to go through various levels of stress when taking treatment for a condition like CML. It is unfortunate that your husband is not interacting with you in a positive manner and this is making you spend months at your mothers home to get peace and make a recovery.

Valium is diazepam that is a benzodiazepine and its maximum dose is 10 mg 4 times a day. You have taken a much higher dose at once than recommended. Though nothing will happen if you take it on one occasion but taking it on a regular basis can cause harm to your body and mind. Please use mental relaxation techniques like doing yoga or reading a book when you feel anxiety. Please do not worry.
