Hi @FeR
Sorry to read you're having a tough time in the middle of this part of the 'journey'.
One thing I found useful and helpful when I was in the midst of active treatment, was I formed a whatsapp group with a bunch of my nearest and dearest. I have 2 friends that I spoke to directly with updates, and then they took turns in posting an update to the group. That way, I didn't have to tell the same things over and over, but the people I cared about (and who cared about me) were all informed at the same time of what was happening, and what was helpful to me at the time (walk around the block, them collecting me to take me to the markets, afternoon visits when I was up to it and wanting company). I could read the updates too but it just took the pressure off. Maybe that could be something that could work for you?
Absolutely sending all the vibes to the West (i'm originally from Perth!) and hoping the side effects start to become more manageable for you.
Kx
