Allyjay Oh My Goodness!!! I think we can all relate to varying degrees of your recount!!! Amazing when you think about it that youre still standing and still sane??!!!! but you are! Hat off to you!! Ive had BC twice in 5yrs and 2015 I had IDC Stage 2 Grade 3 that landed me into the fun parlour too!!! Lol Chemo aaaah 4 FEC also the red devil, ended up in hospital for 3 infusions it made me that ill. 8 Taxol and was very different but the pain throughout 4.5 months of chemo was relentless. So absolutely find something that works! Im allergic to narcotics so OMG could only do nurofen with panadol osteo. It took the edge off even 1yr post chemo I still suffer pain but its more Arimidex but still have days where I pop a couple of Panadol Osteo. Only post treatment was I able to start making any headway with my rehabilitation. Finally Im working with an Exercise Physiologist and honestly its gobsmacking how involved it is, and how all the muscles work, I LOVE IT!. She said there was NO WAY I could have exercised through treatment, and unless you are an athlete only recommends very light if it makes you feel good. This is where she said you get to rebuild as your body is healing and through chemo I guess I didnt realise how much it just needed to heal. Hope youre doing Ok!!! Big hugs!!!
Dibee!!! so glad youre feeling a little bit better!!! It so helps knowing you are not alone on this horrid journey, and so much of it is normal, well to all of us anyway. ! Melinda xo
