How is everyone doing today?
I am on day 4 of third EC and feeling pretty lightheaded and a bit washed out. I am off work this week and everyone else is busy so I am a bit bored.
Does anyone feel the same? This is a lonely journey sometimes.
I am watching absolute s**t on TV to cheer myself up. 
canāt concentrate on anything sensible.
Love to you all

@hoggie yes absolutely get the boredom factor! Not quite enough energy to do anything useful, but ok enough to need entertainment. Can never quite work out whether to push through the slightly light headed, tired fog or back off! Post surgery dog, leg needed fixing, is also bored and looking for three legged, strictly no steps, entertainment?! Hereās to feeling a bit better and not being a slave to hospital appointments.

Definitely feeling washed out too after 3rd EC. I think itās taking its toll on all our bodies.
I thankfully met up with a friend for a coffee and chat this afternoon. I was getting cabin fever stuck indoors. There is absolute junk on TV. Iāve done all the available Wasgijs! Now addicted to Vinted which is satisfying my chemo finger. 
Iām definitely weiry and fed up with it all.

Ooof, 4 weeksā¦ That is brutal. Everything is making me feel sick today, barely ate a thing which I hate. 
I just want this all to be over, my body (and brain) feels ruinedā¦

I would ask for a break. I had a long chat with my oncologist and they expect people to miss 1 or 2 of pacs and some people have to stop completely after a few x

Decided Iād treat myself to a curry in the hope that my taste buds would like it, omg, little taste but my goodness my poor mouth got the heat. Was mild one, had it before, so its me not the curry. Ok that idea goes off the list!

My brain just isnāt catching up with these taste issues, I can fancy things I smell and they still taste awful. Tea, coffee 
neither tastes right. Mint and berry teasā:+1:, even tried a glass of no alcohol wine, sour ugh. I should really be grateful Im currently having more nuisance seās than serious!
