Hello ladies. I hope today is a cooler day for you all. It is lovely and breezy down south…so much so, I needed a coat to go to the shops…..such a nice change….I went with coat as it is threatening to rain 
. The wind is just blowing the clouds over…we did just have what I would call a sea mist. Nothing like being teased.
Anyway, I have surfaced from my cocoon lol. I have been reading your posts and sending my hugs in my thoughts to you. This cycles has been better…whoop whoop. Still had a few hand and feet issues, but not sure if they are related to all this heat or the chemo. I have got neuropathy in my finger tips and toes again, they hurt less today, so I can type.
I no longer use nail polish as I have decided my nails need to absorb the hand creams and lotions, and the polish just blocks that. My hands are now peeling, so my new issue is making sure they are not drying out and cracking…so lots of cream. We win one battle to end up with another.
Started spiralling downwards on day 3 (wed) Not so much pain this time around, and more localised to my legs and breasts, lasted a few days, but painkillers helped, and I didn’t need to take them as often. Also the exhaustion started then too, gradually getting worse. I think I hit bottom day 6(sat). The hot weather and the side effects of the injection kept on giving though. Feeling so much better today. felt like I needed to go out and do stuff….but couldn’t due to eldest needing me to wait in for a parcel…..grrr 1.30 I could finally go out to buy food!! Yesterday all I wanted to do was eat lol 
. I think it was trying to give me energy for today.
Sorry to hear some of you ladies have had scary reactions, big hugs for you 
I am trying to keep away from sick people and I do wear a face mask when in shops or crowded streets. Thankfully I have managed to not catch my kids bugs. I did scowl at my hubby on one of his rare visits home, when he sat next to me saying he’d got a sore throat and was then coughing everywhere. Hmmm. Luckily for him, I didn’t catch whatever he had. Some family members have offered to come and visit for a day, but I have put them off. I don’t know how much energy I have until I have it, and also, I don’t want them to bring germs from another county here
I have an appointment to see a Radiotherapy consultant….so pleased at that. It feels like making progress. I have that appointment on the same day as my next chemo session. Thankfully at the same hospital, else I couldn’t have done it. Hopefully some of you will have also gotten your appointments too, or they will start to come through. 
Whatever drug you are having, I hope it behaves and treats you all kindly. 
Hmmm I’m off to forage again lol
