Hi All most of you who know me on this site will know I had op for Bc ,NOV 07 followed by rads and chemo 2008 also had pancreatiitis in the middle of my treatment . Just felt I was picking up again end of last year then this year had to have gynae tests and exploratory op to rule out Uterine Cancer . Six weeks of waiting whilst various things were going on was hell. Just breathing a sigh of relief AGAIN, when I had flu type virus and I am on antibiotics for bronchitis at present ( not helped by being asthmatic) Please any tips on rebuilding my confidence again , it has taken quite a bashing . I feel friends are not there for me like they were because they are probly sick and tired of me always having something wrong with me. Gp suggested counselling and I have had two sessions .
Wise words from you great folks out there needed PLEASE.
Love to all Bobbie
A great holiday holiday of a life time is in order i think after what you have gone through!
I had 6 session of counselling last year and found it really helped. At that point I was ready to try anything and so I found having to work with the psychologist quite challenging as she generally gave me a lot of things to work on and think about between sessions. TBH, I found it really helped just to be able to talk to someone who knew nothing about me and I left the first session feeling like a great weight had been lifted off my shoulders.I also found I knew who my true friends were and the ones who rallied round were the ones I didn’t expect.
I was laid low by flu back in January and had a cough that just wouldn’t clear up - I felt afterwards that I was going round in a circle again, but managed to get back on track by thinking back to some of the things I had worked through in the counselling sessions. It would make my day if I could go on holiday at the moment, but we are very busy with work at the moment and a client we are chasing for non payment has left us with a cash flow problem. Still, I live in hope of even just a nice day out.
Hi Pineapple & Cherub, Holiday would be wonderful but gonna have a break in caravan Easter Tues, joining my son and daughter in law as they c/van to .Off to Longleat, if I asked nicely do you think Lord Bath would put me up in his one of his wifey suites, no hanky panky just being waited on and relax in his jacuzzi, I would not bother hinm at all.
Counselling certainly seems to have helped you Cherub, I did have a cancer counsellor to help me through the treatment and it helped enormously so I hope this one can put me on the right track again.
I’m still so b/dy tired but has been six months since finished treatment.
Thanks to you both for taking the time and trouble to get back to me Keep in touch.
Love Bobbiexx
