I agree @kezmusic I think that’s a great idea about the emotional side effects. It’s definitely has an impact on our lives doesn’t it. And @AllyJay I too have forgotten my PIN number a few times standing at the ATM with a line up of people behind me and felt like a wanker and even not that long ago forgot where I parked my car in the car park at the shops. I usually always park in the same park but this one day I just had to pop in quickly to grab something and parked at the closest end to the that particular shop as I couldn’t be fucked walking that far and wasn’t in the shops long and freaked the fuck out and could not remember so it was funny as shit walking around the car park with my car door remote pressing it until it started beeping and I eventually found it but bugger me it was frustrating and funny at the same time. I just had to laugh or else I would of lost my shit over it for sure. I’m relieved I don’t have to take post treatment meds like some of you guys do as I was triple neg and from what I’ve read they can sometimes be a bit nasty. But at the same time sometimes feel a bit “unprotected” as I don’t take any and again can lead to the emotional side effects we all talk about. Margie xx
