January chemo starters ?

Hi shocked sent you a pm

Moaning is cathartic get it out of your system it’s important ! And what we are dealing with is all relative. There’s always someone worse off than you but that doesn’t mean what you are going through is not crap.

Ray if light. I’m day 3 cycle 3 or 4 EC and I’m feeling better than last cycle. My tearyness has calmed down and my nausea not as bad. I do start those dreaded injections today though. Giving them doesn’t bother me just the yukky SE from them.

Hoping you all have s better 3rd cycle too

Keep swimming xxx???

Too much Shocked…youve got too much.

I think you might be expecting a bit too much of yourself because you have so much to deal with.

 

Thought I send you soome flowers xxxx

Hi Rosie I’m having 8 in total don’t know why. I was going to question it but decided just to get on with it. 4 EC then 4 Doxetal. ?

Shocked you are welcome xxx

 

Aliand 8 cycles…I was looking on the T thread and some ladies there had 8 Ts…its all very complicated xxx

Hi Shocked,

 

As everyone has said, please don’t apologise.  That’s kinda what this is here for ?

 

Don’t try to be brave if you’re not feeling up to it, take the time you need to recover, bearing in mind you have other issues as well - it’s what your doc would say!

 

I think today is a relaxing, floating day, as opposed to swimming too much ?

Feeling a little brighter at last ?
Went to our local charity store and picked up 6 different scarves of all different colours for the bargain price of £5!!! Gonna enjoy playing with different styles tonight.
Might pop into local town next week (4 charity shops…whoop!) and see what else I can find!!

Ark at you CT (new abreviation im trying for you) getting your bargains in…

Ive got a nice Facepack tonight and a glass of Red…husbands on nights so pampering for me.

Shocked…big fist pump in the air for you xxx

Rosie - CT, I love it ??

Beautiful blue sky here in Cornwall too Dealdoh. Funny how the sunshine helps to lift the mood. Short beach walk with the four legged fur-baby might happen later

Pretty sunny in St Helens too up in t’north !
I’m day 4 after 3rd EC and feeling surprisingly good. Not nauseous as such but no appetite - lost more weight. Totally off chocolate - do you think this could be serious !!
Dh working all weekend so just me and the kids but I’m thinking I’ll manage to shout orders at them while doing a few light jobs.
Better make the most of it I started those horrid injections yesterday.

Gliding on the water today I think on my lilo.
How you doing starfire ? Any ‘movement’ yet ?
Xx

Oh you lucky coast dwellers…

i will be walking around our local country park with my two little fur friends…then ice cream at the cinema. I love last weekend before next chemo makes me feel like a real person again.

Enjoy the sunshine my fellow paddlers xxx

The whole country must be basking, it’s lovely here in Sussex but the sun is not doing it for me at the moment.  Feel a bit wasteful sitting in doors.  I’m just glad I’m going through this now and not during summer!

Hi ladies x I’m in not so sunny Staffordshire , heating is on at 20 degrees as it is every day , my flipping heating bill will be enormous x feeling really well , as Rosie says last weekend before chemo on Thursday x still have hair but I’m shedding , saw onco nurse on Thursday she said it will start growing back on T ? Has anybody else heard this ?
I may even try a white wine spritzer later ? ??
???:snowflake::snowflake:

Lovely   sunny day also here in North Devon, even did some gardening this morning.  Haven’t posted for a while but been following all your comments.  On Valentine’s evening my husband came in with a large bunch of red roses and card.  I was really touched as in 44 years of marriage he has never bought me flowers even after having a baby.  

 

Waiting for next visit to Hairdresser when I can try on the wigs I have picked.  Enjoy the rest of the weekend ladies let’s hope tomorrow is sunny as well.

Fel, That’s lovely about the flowers what a nice surprise for you ?I sent you pm a couple of days ago, did you get it? ??:sparkles::sparkles:shi xx

You girls …Sussex Cornwall Chester…stop it I live near Peterborough!!! I’m on T ladies first session big hair loss, since I shaved it’s settled and I have to say there’s stubble elsewhere now where there was nothing!!!

 

im feeling very liberated ladies, mostly because I’ve had 2 glasses of wine but more because I’ve just been out for cinema and dinner without a wig, hat or scarf! It was blooming wonderful xxx

Happy birthday Shocked…I hope you have the best day you can…

Fel…I’m on T first not Fec which makes your tummy gurgle and makes me shake too…Marshmallows are a weird but helpful little tummy settler xxx

Happy birthday shocked ???. Fel darling check with your team about probiotic stuff while on chemo there are things we have to keep off while on chemo, please check. I’ve pm’d you again too ??firestar hope you are ok? How’s the scarf headgear coming along? Noticed in magazine river island is doing a nice turban ???:sparkles::sparkles:shi xx

Happy birthday shocked. Hope the day has had its special moments and def a good idea to have a fizz up in the summer.

But I cooked the dinner - I’m swimming ??
