Oh my goodness @bea4 Jackdaw down your chimney, serious car accident outside your house, roads closed !!! Whatever next is going to come your way ??? I think you are needing to have some rest time for sure. Forget the chemo, that sounds like a breeze in comparison to โlifeโ ![]()

And jackdaws are the clever birds, so what was it doing falling down your chimney? Probably wanted to catch a spider
and leaned over too far.
. Nice of it cleaning your chimney.
So pleased it flew away safe and sound after being looked after so carefully by yourselves.

Why is it steroids make you buzz when they make me sleep. ![]()
I would manage one thing on your list and be pooped in 10mins. But I bet you suffer the day after. That must be hard ![]()

Yes, drugs are tricky
. What are your concerns about Verzenios?. ( I hate the names, they are so tricky to remember ![]()
). Its such a new drug and they promote it so much. But that makes it harder to decide. I know Ive got to take Letrozole. (Only after Radiotherapy thoughโฆmy choice on that front, Oncologist wanted me to start it this week) Verzenios is suppose to compliment, and , work with, Letrozole. But goodness its a minefield. I just dont want a life with debilitating side effects and Verzenios is the worst for chronic gut problems (oh and hair loss again etc). I would be so tired.
Some Facebook users advised taking a toiletry bag with spare pads, knickers,wet wipes, imodium etc when going out. It left me in the pits of despair. I know us women are strong and we cope with garbage being thrown at us, but surely that is not a way to live for 2-3 years.
I thought going through the menopause and having no periods would be liberating not having to use any sanitary products ever again. It would be such a backward step, but worse if I soiled myself. No wonder some patients stop going anywhere. That for many of us would really push many women into depression.
I know its cancer, I know cancer is serious, I know medics are trying hard to help us live, so I dont want to be too dismissive, nor critical. I am eternally grateful to them for keeping me alive. But the brutality of some of the treatment is tough. And medics do make mistakes. Shown by the Trust that did over 20 unnecessary mastectomies (in the news today). So we do need to question things. We do need choices.
I hope you manage to rest today. Goodness its not long before Monday, then Wednesday. But you only have 2 more left whoop whoop ![]()
