Hi Jo
Sorry and Welcome and Happy New Year.....
Yeah, it happened and it was me and you and her and her and her....
You made through the surgery which taken out the worst and nasty part. The following treatment are for precaution and eliminiation if any.
I had my chemo Mar - Jun 14, and 6 weeks of Radio ended in Sep.
It's a heavy cold & flu. The symphon came up because you were very weak. Just like cold & flu, it attacked us when we were weak. Feeling nausea, vomiting, headache, boneache, muscle pain etc etc......
May I suggest you all you have to do is - keep pleasant and happy. It simply you are sick and it will gone. Other than that was put the business aside, find some good way to keep yourself healthy and enjoy life.
You may stop working, stop from thinking of it, had a good morning walking, nearby alone, or with friends, or dog..... had a good water, and then breaky with lots of fruit, juicing fresh vegi..... rest a while, a movie, a music time, a reading time...had a lap, prepare good lunch, think about the 2 boys, plan something special for dinner along with all the side effects.
If you really feel sick, lying down and let yourself be their for resting and recharging.
Most of the side effect will come in to you like roller coaster, it will gone itself for couple days later.
Here is a wonderful website, that I learnt a lot other than just the doctor sayings. My mouth care, skin care, nail care etc.... I shaved myself the 1st time chemo. I hate to see it drop bunch by buch. Bold head for couple months. It's good especially now was so hot.
Be brave, you are not alone. Sure you can make it.
Take care and Happy New Year.
