Hello evenryone.
Been a few weeks since last update.
Chest infection cleared up. They moved my chemo day from Monday to Tuesday which helped with my work, as in trying to work as much as possible. Cause redundancy sucks. And I have staff that relies on me to organise eork for them to do.
Had my first paclitaxel on Tuesday this week, all went well, except quite painful few moments when they started the drip, but eventually sorted it out with some hot compress.
Felt absolutely fine on Wednesday, but had my pelgraz injection om thursday and *uck my life not sure if its side effects from injection or paclitaxel, but my joins and bones past my hips down to my toes are in agony. I barely slept yesterday and only reason I think I slept was a walm last night before bed. I literally spend 2h in hot bath yesterday during the day as it was only thing to make it better.
Good things, im not as nauseas as I was woth EC, but I could manage the nausea with meds, this is different, paracetamol doesnt help and im not sure how long I will be able to take this. My knees are the worst.
And if with EC I used to get flashes of pain along side my spine that I could se stars from but only for couple of seconds, yesterday I had one but felt like it was the whole spine.
Nurses said Paclitaxel is easier than EC, but I’m not convinced.
Trying to concentrate on good things: my huge tumor that looked literary like half the boob is shrinking and my oncologist showed me scans on Tuesday too and I only have 3 more bi-weekly paclitaxel left.
But still hard to be positive when I can sleep already due to severe hot flashes and now its aching bones too. Literally had to go to bed in pj, woolen socks and jumper, and had to take everything off mid of the night. I just want to sleep for a night 
. And not to wake up millions of times.
Ok. Rant finished.
Work is waiting. Have a great weekend everyone. Hope everyone is as good as it’s possible right now.
