    “Cancer is an unexpected lodger who turns up, messes things up and causes chaos. You finally get rid of them, then realise they’ve kept the key.”  I like that, too, @Afraser. I've been known to call it a saga as it does go on and on at times.

    I really hate the use of 'journey' in the description of our cancer treatment. Breast cancer is one of the shitty hurdles that life has thrown at me but I am definitely not on a journey.

    @BlackWidow I like "saga".
    My saga of fatigue goes on and on.
    I'm having my two-year scan tomorrow.
    Saw my new GP today (my old one of 30 years retired in December) about a broad panel of rash under my remaining boob. It's not sore or itchy. Skin is thickened and rough. She's concerned. Now I am too. Imagining IBC. Oh well. Should know tomorrow or soon after.

    That's no good @Flaneuse. Wretched, wretched BC. I'll cross my fingers that it is nothing concerning. One step at a time dear friend. K xox

    I love the analogy of the bloody thing outside the back door licking the glass.
    Then you second guess yourself constantly, I did lock that door right?
