    Has anyone had this happen?.. It started happening no longer after I got my dodgy port in my arm. Since the blood clot saga, it's getting bigger. It's slightly raised very dark veins. Injections are working and swelling in neck has gone down.

    Gosh they look like varicose veins! Are they sore to touch? I had a nasty rash from chemo but nothing like that.

    As usual, probably best to show it to a doctor or a nurse. K xox

    @kmakm definitely look like varicose veins! I've got a GP app 1st up Monday and chemo on Tuesday so might get an answer there. I was having XFile, aliens in my veins reaction! Nice excuse for a new tattoo when this is over!

    I'm going to get my first tattoo when all this is over. Something on my foobs, just for me. Indian henna style. What are you thinking?

    @kmakm that sounds lovely. My daughter is organising something with a great tattooist in Melb. She wants to get matching ones. Should focus more on what we want so I can use it as the thing to look forward to after treatment. Having an awesome weekend with the kids and my Grandson coming up from Melb to visit. They needed to see I was ok with the blood clot saga.

    Final AC done and dusted. Looks like I am gonna have to keep this dodgy port in until after radiation is completed. Only need to inject once a day for now then hopefully a pill for a short while. Feeling dopier than usual. Next stop 30 rounds of rads.

    Hello @TabooGal
    Great new that final AC has been 'done and dusted'.  Take care of yourself over the next few days.

    Woohoo! @TabooGal It's a great feeling, isn't it?..even if you feel like crap as well.  Hopefully, you'll sail through rads

    Arg just woke up in a lather of sweat and nauseous. Its gonna be a long week. I have to have some blood tests b4 next Onc appointment to see what my ovaries are doing. She said I cant do tomoxifon whilst I am on blood thinners and she wants to know why stage my menopause is at. Cos I've got no idea. Today's naptime hot sweats are the first time yet haven't had a period for over 7 years

    Congrats on finishing chemo@TabooGal, must be a Relief!
    I am premenopausal, straight after my first chemo round I had night sweats for a week, a really huge flood of a period, bad cramping( and of course that was during my chemo diarrhoea days! ) I am hoping chemo is pushing me into menopause so I can get it all done and dusted at once! I can only hope....Lol.
