Hi Lucaboo
If fire alarm had gone off for me, suspect I’d have been left on the couch as I prob wouldn’t have heard ! ?, I was so concentrating on the noises of the machine ! Sorry to hear of your breathlessness problem, that does sound like stress…and who can blame us?
Have you tried apps out there for relaxation and anxiety - daughter suggested I try Headspace, she uses it (has post natal depression) and finds it really helpful, in dealing with stressful thoughts etc. I tried it in the early days and it definitely helped me too, going to get back in to it now as I just get waves of dread oftentimes…like I’m sure others do.
Hope you get through tomorrow without headache or anything, fire alarms and broken machines included !
Sue, thanks for the tip re Medi honey, I’ve seen it mentioned elsewhere on the forum, but not in relation to radiotherapy soreness, I think I’ll send for some in anticipation, - feel pretty sure the nipple area is going to definitely suffer…that is the worst area, where all the scars are…
Keep strong, Lucaboo, that bell will be sounding before you know it xx
Hi Ladies
Lucaboo you’re having to cope with a lot! Can’t believe you also had an alarm go off! I would imagine the breathlessness would be due to anxiety. I’ve not heard of this problem before. If it persists, then speak to the head of the radiotherapy team. I had a review at the end of the week… Do you get one?
Sue xx
Lucaboo I was only joking about a fire alarm going off and now its happened to you. Bless your heart x A story every day.
Keep going ladies, its all eorth it in the end x
