Hi ladieS, have been r adding your posts but sorry not replied sooner. jude- so pleased that you are home, hoping you are resting. Docetaxol is rather horrid but apparently very effective. I feel for you with the shooting bone pain- I was like an old lady too. Ask your onc what they recommend re pain relief. I had coedine for the last one, I was very very spaced out but without the pain- all a balancing act. Hope you were treated well in Casea NHS. When are you scheduled for your next chemo? Rosie Posie - hoping you are getting some of the warmer weather this weekend. A few days this week has been really warm here on the south coast -22 degrees and sunny. Yesterday was windy and really autumnal- a challenge with Audrey- needed to adjust to be tighter fitting!! yorkshire Tyke - pleased Tamoxifen se are being kind to you. I start in 2 weeks. Was so encouraged reading your post, thank you- you tend to hear the horrid stories. Lisa hope all is well. Walking is really good for us, join the rambling group-hopefully you will really enjoy, if you don't like it you don't have to go again. Yesterday i I finished active treatment 🛎 🛎 🎉 🎉 after 8 months. It has been hard, really really hard at times, I've hated putting my family through this. But we've done it and have come out the other side. I know the next phase is hard but I need to keep focussed on moving on. I've started the BCC moving on course- would recommend a look. The first week was not great but 2nd was really helpful- I need to have a bag of tools to help me move forward from all this - I need to carefully select the most helpful tools to add and ditch the others. I now have a week to get ready to go on hols- off to Portugal 😀 . Due to the fatigue from radiotherapy I think it's going to take me all week to pack 😥 . I'm usually someone with lots of energy and would normally fit in packing for us all around a hundred other things- not at the mo- it seems to take me ages to do anything. Good news on travel insurance- we gave an annual family policy. Hubble rang yesterday to inform them of diagnosis and that all active treatment completed-no extra charge 😀 😀 enjoy the weekend xx
