Help

I am basically where you are at with Chemo and I find I am feeling the same. I am sadder a lot more and I can't shake it off as easily. I am 37 and didn't even think about it being menopause. I am getting out and about and my kids and friends are keeping me busy. I just hope these feelings don't get worse as i go along. The fact that the bit of hair I do have left after shaving it off is coming out doesn't help either. My hats from Headcovers arrived today so that perked me up too. I have ordered a real hair wig ( an xmas present for myself )

I am thinking of talking to the psycologist on offer in the public system as I am also finding that my heightened sense to smells is getting to me. I have chucked out products that I wore when I had my first chemo. Can't stand the smell or the association to chemo. It the same with songs I hear now as well. I feel like a crazy person sometimes. I do have a good cry at night to try and let these emotions out.

I constantly worry about the breast I didn't have removed and can't wait to get it off. I could go on and on! I just pray this chemo journey doesn't break me. I have been so strong up until this point. Like you, day 5, it hit me hard. Four to go I can do it! You can do it too. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Take Care! XO
