Hi sue I've been rather naff this time sue and my last one seemed extra juicy! Slept lots and I have the similar sofa dip. Not got a dog but I sure my mother and a few of my friends have disappeared down it. Yep I have put on weight and in my head after this weekend eventually when taste returns properly I will be eating normal again including brown bread and veg!! . Even my mother who goes home tomorrow is joining in and we ate vile hot dogs with onions and that yummy dirty mustard and ketchup! ( lots of them!) Devine.....I have no shame Haha!! So there we are. I have my radio therapy planning on 13th June then Start on the 20th. I'm not going to get tomaxathan ( spelt wrong!) they changed it to monthly injections ( and implant called gosl.... Can't remember )and something sounding like extol.... Can't remember names I'm still in bed! I'll check it out when I go down stairs. Not sure why changed their minds. Got a meeting with work on the 16 of June to discuss phased return in August. Partner coming at the weekend and hoping to find a lotto ticked from Wednesday that I think my mama has either stashed because I shut her in the freezer or it's been eatn by next doors cat..... Xxxx loved to everyone. Xxxxxxx kept going. Ps my tongue has gone white!!!! ... View more

Hi Sue Your not weak! I think some people just get worse SE than others. I think you maybe do too much and dont allow yourself to rest. Sounds ike you look after your OH and grandkids and do lots of looking after everyone else. You are a lttle older which will also be harder I would imagine (hope its ok to say that). Imust say when I have mine on Friday I wont eat for a week. Everything is vile (i make up for it later though!!) my toe nails are a little dodgy (not from wearing stillettos I would like to add).  How many you got left Sue? I think you will be near the end? then you can start to repair from the chemo and hopefully start to feel stronger again. It wont be long and then when your stronger you can go out and do all the things you havent been able too. Your bodys tired and its just telling you to stop for a while! big hugs and please dont beat yourself up over it your nearly at the end of this difficult rubbishness!!!! lots of love sal xxxx  ...

I'm still in bed lazy beast but need to get up! Gosh hoping to be back to work in August...... Can't imagine that either! In fact I've become so attached to ice cream I may buy a van and play awful tunes and sell it.... Keep going sue big hugs xxxxx ... View more

Hi sue I think everyone has SE and don't worry about others. You are getting there and feel rubbish but you are getting through! I think on tac I have all those symptoms and seem to find colista is currently making me laugh enough to make me think I am still a human and not an alien life form! Today my legs are like bricks and currently want to shout at all people and insects!! Sue when everyone is down on here you throw in a joke or a picture and make us smile. Your a fab lady and I for one have enjoyed your lovliness and honesty! I have gone from being a confident therapist to a sprout!!! obsessed with Internet shopping and talking about poo! Haha and you know what this 6 months will pass and we will be back to our former selves and never take any more b#€€$*~s agsin!! Xxxxxx you are a light on here xxxx ... View more
