Hi
I like all these ladies have been where you are and to a certain extent still am. It does get better. You will feel more peaceful as we all do. If its any consolation I am 5 treatments in and still have my hair. Yes its thinner but no one else can tell and I feel blessed. With my hair I dont announce I have cancer, I still feel I can keep it to myself. People are amazed but it does happen one other lady who finished her complete round of chemo still had her lovely blond hair. I eat ice cubes the whole infusions and drink lots of cold water the whole time. I run to the ladies constantly. I also drink heaps and heaps of paw paw leaf tea in which I boil fresh. I swear this is why I have not felt sick once or suffered a sore mouth or any tingling of hands and feet . Well I like to believe it is any way. But hang in there we are all there rooting for you all of us on here who share the same road. So your never alone just type in BCNA online and feel the love . Believe me it is one thing that has eased my distress and fear knowing I am not alone and I always have someone on here who actually knows exactly how I feel. Big cyber hug to you.....Your braver and stronger than you know.
