This does not make for a pleasant time! 37 degrees plus in Perth today! Yuck! Suffering big time with the heat at the moment. The only draw back with the PICC is not being able to go swimming. Wading is ok. Feel extra grumpy as well! My poor family! Roll on the 6th Jan - my last chemo!
Hope all is well with you all as we approach Christmas.
Take care,
Love Alison xx
Hi Alison,
I hope some of your weather does come over this way to Melbourne ;-) but I feel for you having to suffer it without an air conditioner though you poor girl.
My Phsycologist told me today about an old remedy for hot flashes......she said to put an ice block behind your neck, one in the hollow in the front of your neck and one under your tongue....she said it reduces your temp with in minutes....so just keep some ice blocks in your freezer or if you have an ice block maker on your fridge too like I do it may come in handy! :-) I my self am suffering from hot flashes from mid chemo to now and my mood swings are shocking towards the time when my period is due...My poor husband went back off shore with his tail between his legs & said it was the worst 2 weeks of his life...:-D Poor bastard...hahaha.....Aaaaannnnyyyyy way i'd best be off....
Brightest Blessing to you,
Susan xxx
hi al,
last chemo jan 6th.. good for you ! i bet you are feeling worse for wear atm; right in the middle of it, and with vasodilation from flushes and the heat wave in PERTH.
TAKE IT EASY... is my suggestion. do not push yourself too much at the moment.
icy poles..etc sound good. send the heat south.. to TASMANIA ! we need it here.
merry xmas, kathy.
Thanks Tonya and Penny,
Yes I will be sitting in front of the fan this evening! Iceblock is a great idea thanks Tonya! Will dig some out. It's supposed to cool down over the next few days. It doesn't help that the aircon has died! Many phonecalls to make tomorrow.
Hope you are all coping with heat/rain etc ok.
Thanks again for you lovely comments. Good to have a grumble to those who understand!
