So I walk almost every day and sometimes twice. My partner has been a great support and we normally walk 6-7k each day.
I’m hoping to run a 10k in May but there will be lots of walking involved. I finished chemo on 18 November and then had 3 weeks radiation. I’m now on abemacyclib for the last 3 weeks and coping ok with it. I have quite a few side affects but I’m back working full time so it’s not too bad. I’d like to hear how you are going.
I haven’t my first mammogram and ultrasound booked in for the end of March so I’m hoping that it’s a good result.
