hmmm, my reply this morning to this must have been left sitting and not submitted. Sorry Jodie, I wasn't ignoring you.
Thanks for the cost info and the chicks in pink bizzo as well. I might ask the Cancer Council about them. I don't have a breast care nurse. The one I saw was the doctors wife and she hasn't asked after me once. Just sold me a bra, stuffed literature into my hands and said seeya.
Actually I will be at my surgeons tomorrow for fluid aspiration so I might ask then.
I'm over being afraid of all this stuff (until I get closer to chemo). Now I'm just annoyed at the medical profession in general and the government for allowing the medical profession to become overworked and therefore unable to provide the care that cancer patients should have. (sorry, hopping down from my soapbox now and becoming human again)
My mother was telling me that someone she knew bought a fringe. Just a fringe. She said wigs are hot to wear so she would get a scarf or a hat and pin the fringe to the edge of it at the front and go out like that. I'm more worried about getting cold during chemo when I have no hair. I'm going to have to find some really cool beanies to wear. I can't hold my body heat in really cold air con for long periods. So blanket, dressing gown, slippers and beanie will be the order of the day.
