Hey Rowdy Great to hear your post. You answered me at times when life was too hard. You do stop thinking of cancer every minute of every day. you get used to the various side effects - the new you - you mourn for the old you less and less. You stress at the (for me) 6 monthly onc appt - annual mammo, u/s and that old feeling of. "'It wont happen to me" ..returns. The mind is a powerful thing, just can't let it think to deep or long, keep busy, keep smiling.
Any chance of reducing or changing your work load. Think maybe you were like me, currently can't change, but at least you celebrated end of treatment with a hol - still waiting for my promised one!!! 2015 finished treatment (hercepton) worked all the way through 6 mnths chemo 6 weeks radio with 3 weeks total off work.... I want a bl ... y holiday and its been postponed again. grrrrr
Big hugs Pam
