Final chemo?!?!
I turned up for my usual pre-chemo consult with Gary, my oncologist. He started off by mentioning my exploits after the last chemo, and then said “so no more chemo for you”. None? “None.” That’...
Thanks for understanding. It's hard to explain to people that I actually don't feel good about this. It's not a reprieve from chemo. It's a sudden stop to my treatment and I'm feeling quite depressed about it. I had braced myself for it, and now I don't know what to do with myself. I am so tired as well. I slept in late, forced myself out of bed and went for a walk, pushed myself a bit too hard and came home sweaty and completely out of puff and went back to bed again!
I'm not sure what to expect now that the chemo has stopped. When does the hair grow back? I'm bald but I have bristles about 3mm long and they snap off easily but don't seem to be falling out.
I'm not interested in seeing friends or talking to anyone. My family members have been calling and I don't answer. Maybe I'm more depressed than I thought.
