Hello Shirley
Here I am at last !.
Had my third chemo last Tuesday will be pleased to get the last over on 15th Feb- then only the herceptin. I had 5 days in hospital the week before Xmas with neutropinia which was abit rough. Am now having injections on Neulasta the day after chemo which seems to help the white cells. I didnt handle Xmas too well and have been depressed so my GP has put me on anti depressant tabs which I think are helping. Then husband Tom got a bad virus which of course was the last thing I needed. He has been sleeping out in the back room and although I didn't get his virus I developed a cough and have been on antibiotics for bronchitis-finished them this am and don't think they have done much for the cough as still the same.
How are you going with your radiation treatment? you must be well into it by now. Do you have to have 25 treatments as I did? It becomes tiring towards the end.
I bought a wig also and the family like the style so like you plan to stay that way when the hair returns. One good thing I dont have to worry about my facial fuzz at present !!
Hope your family Xmas went off well
Hot day today -summer at last- but I prefer it abit cooler.
All for now
June
