Hi @DAB72 I don't know if it helps but I know a few people who have changed their Tamoxifen type, as in from the manufacturer as silly things like them being sugar coated capsules etc has effected people and whether to take in the morning or nighttime. I hope you get on well at your appointment. There is so much to listen to and take it that you just feel like you live in the moment of treatment. People were talking about their ops yesterday and I now can't even remember the size of the tumour that they removed. It is weird, maybe it is a safety thing built in to our brains so that we can cope at one stage at a time. I read yesterday that eating foods like soya is supposed to help. I think I would need to ask a professional as I did pick up a leaflet yesterday on menopause symptoms so I need to see what might help. I think all HRT is not allowed. We are literally going cold turkey. The next time a women complains about the menopause to me I might just laugh and say get yourself to the doctors for some HRT and deal with it, they have options, we have none. I received my letter yesterday to say that won't be referred for any genetic testing so my daughter should just be tested from 35. I can pop a DNA sample in a bank too apparently. The Look Good Feel Better session as fabulous, I highly recommend it. The drive made me feel like a normal person as I was getting more and more anxious about long journeys. The 2 hour session was lovely and the goody bag was fab. Lots of tips on beauty, skin care and makeup tips when you've lost your eye brows and lashes. You can do them virtually too and they still send you some goodies. I am still in my dressing gown as have a horrid sore throat. It kept me up loads despite taking sleeping pills. More pills needed. I must rattle by now. I am feeling fat and horrible from the steroids. They just make me so hungry and I know I am putting on weight now. Argh it never ends!! Sendings love and hugs xxx
