Everybody on this forum are amazing.
My visit to The Oncology Clinic regarding Chemotherapy is January 25th. I will find out how much and for how long and when it will all start.
Already know that once Chemotherapy is finished I have been told that I will be having 6 weeks of Radiotherapy 5 days a week.
Thanks sister I will look into the wig library at RAH, there is also a wig library at Victor Harbor which is closer to me, so if I don’t find something suitable there I can have a look in RAH.
Have already ordered a couple of head scarves of EBay in preparation.
Went and purchased a Iced Tea Diffuser jug, as I think I would struggle drinking 3 litres of just plain water a day during Chemo.
Will stock up on Coloxyl with senna and gastro stop.
Would like to know more about colour on your finger nails?
Anyone else have any reactions or what did you do to prevent nails lifting?
Kesmusc was that Gel coating from a nail salon? Or Shelac?
Did you do both finger nails and toe nails?
CathyMac how are you feeling leading up to Chemo, Things are starting to hit home with me now, struggling a bit.
Need to put on those bid panties now....
Thanks again everyone😘
