starting my pink road of cemo, 15th nov

Jo, disappointed about absence of lamb stew but glad things are moving in the right direction with OH!
Well done Kaz about FEC number 2.
Welcome to Pinkrose. This is definitely the liveliest thread on BCC website. It grows by 20 pages daily… Eeek! If you go away for the weekend you have definitely lost the thread… literally. ha ha
As To Reeb weeing in the snow…That will definitely be in the film. Right? (still undecided as to who should play me? Can I opt for somebody glam like J Lo? :wink:
Speaking of bodily functions during chemo. I was reading Even the eyebrows? last night (not recommended, by the way. Really quite boring, unlike the C word by Lisa Lynch which is a must book to read for us chemo ladies. Highly recommended. With the right mixture of humour and pathos. Just like this thread) It’s about this high powered woman undergoing chemo. Well…she had a horrible accident with diarrhoea, which apparently can be one of the SEs. While she was out she had a violent urge but couldn’t get to a loo fast enough. I don’t need to spell what happened. Poor thing! Now THAT would be excruciatingly embarassing! Weeing in the snow is very mild compared…:slight_smile:

Well no 4 done yipee!
There concerned about my weight loss and told me to eat more and more protein. Feel knackered was there half a day!

Hey Kimmie, WELL DONE! Glad your first TAX went ok…Take care and EAT! Apparently Tax doesn’t make you feel sick. Is that the case??
Big hug

Hi karen
Thanks hun. How did yours go today x

Evening pinkies!

Kaz - well done on getting through #2 and glad the white cells are back up. I had an “abnormal kidney function” the last time (whatever that means) and felt guilty as I’d had a glass of wine a few days before so thought that had caused it…but the nurses just laughed at me and said it wouldn’t be related. Don’t worry about your sore throat, I’ve had tonsil issues following both ECs, they just give you antibiotics if it gets bad…just keep an eye on your temperature.

Reeb - Lol…brings a whole new meaning to leaving a trail so you can find your way home!

Pink Rose - welcome to the “Pinkie Musical”!

Jo - I’ll be around later for the lamb …mmmm :wink:

LIF - this is definitely a drama series!

Think I would need some clumsy comedy actor with the things going on in this household…everything seems to break. Maybe Katherine Parkinson.

What is the name of the black comedy…“Beauty and the BReast”?

Well done Kimmie…go and find some fish and chips with 5 stars to treat yourself! Cat xx

Well done Kimmie …hope it goes really well over next few days…we are all waiting to find out what happens on tax…

Title for the movie…lets get the cast list and title written up (preferably someone who can think straight…I still have severe chemo brain)

suggestions for titles and sub titles please!!!
Any advance on Beauty and the Breast???

Hi ladies,

I hope you don’t mind another new joiner!!! i’ve chatted to several on another thread but thought i’d say Hi as am loving all the chit chat between you all, makes me feel like i’m not alone! Im Sarah, age 38 and was dx 25th Sept. Had lumpectomy with 5 nodes removed (all clear) but due to my age and grade 3 have been advised for chemo. I had my 1st session last Tuesday, should have been 3 x EC and 3-4 Tax, but i had a reaction to the E so my Onc has now changed it to 4-6 C and Taxotere. I should have been having it every 2 weeks but as i’ve changed to Tax its now every 3 weeks which just means it will take longer! No hair loss yet but am sitting here waiting for it to fall out, i had it cut short from very long. Just recovering from the weekend, and feel i bit more human now… so thought i’d drop a line to introduce myself and hopefully you can all help me along my chemo journey…
