Hi
Hope you are doing ok :)
I've just seen my oncologist today for my fortnightly checkup and she said she would like no more than a two week gap between my last chemo ( number 16 scheduled for 7th June but who's counting ) and radiation starting. The quicker it's all over the quicker I get back to work. I miss my 15 toddlers that I look after each day at the preschool that I work at. They will all have changed so much before I get back to them.
Touch wood my weekly taxol is alot kinder to my mind and body than my 3 weekly AC chemos were. I've had aching bones, bleeding nose and upset tummy that strikes every night but it's all doable. I'm finding fatigue is becoming a real issue. I started a course last week so that is keeping my brain active and also keeping me in the real world where day to day stuff doesn't revolve around bc.
I hope you get the answers you need soon
Look after yourself
