Hi Jeanine,
Yes I will accept help and pain relief if offered. I'm no hero :) I have grand ideas that this calamity will not slow my studies just when I'm at the pointy end of my degree but I'm coming around to the idea of playing it by ear. I just hate not being in control and allowing others to do what is in my best interests. It's a really tough pill to swallow and I get very angry when people speak softly to me like an errant child :P
Are you up to or past chemotherapy yet? I want to know if it makes you feel sick, how long do you feel sick for after each session? And is it a totally debilitating sick or you just feel bleh! I'm hoping to not get too far behind and to be able to keep studying between feeling sick.
Sorry if I sound like I have no idea but I'll be the first to admit that on this subject I have no idea.
Cas
