Hi everyone, was thinking about you all today and wondering how you all are.
Haircuts are back in fashion, half dosage deodorant and what about a fluffy face 😂. I bought myself a face de fluffer (little round shaver) and I absolutely love it! I highly recommend it.
Coastijas, sorry to hear about your experience, is this one of the side effects? I’ll be going down that path soon too, I’m yet to start the abemaciclib. Glad to hear you are coping on it Katie. From what my oncologist said, diarrhoea is the main symptom.
My hair is growing thick, fast and extremely curly. It’s also black and white!!! I have to control the curls with product……. never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined this.
I haven’t had any hot flushes on the letrizole yet?? I must say though, like you Katie, my stomach hasn’t been the same since chemo. I still have numbness and tingling in my feet, often creeping up to my thighs. I’ve read this can be permanent damage from the Paclitaxel, it’s something I have come to terms with.
I had my first mammogram last week, passed with flying colours 😂. I do however still have a large lump under my arm from scar tissue. My measurements started to go up so I’m working hard on my exercise regime to keep the fluid from building. I see the surgeon next month and we are going to discuss surgery as she thinks this is causing the fluid not draining, also have come to terms with this.
Christmas will be a better time for us all this year, hope you are making plans to spend time with your family’s. I have Christmas Day off this year, first one in 9 years! I think I deserve to have Christmas at my place 😊
Take care every one 😊
