Round 5 - I keep getting back up
Ok so I made it through round 5 - one more to go woo hoo! Round 5 once again saw me down for the count on a couple of occassions - terrible aches and pains, I seriously felt like I was an 80 year old...

Hi Tammy, I'm at a similar stage to you - one more chemo to go (my fourth) and then radiotherapy. I'm getting the watery eyes too and looking forward to getting rid of the wig. I don't go out in public without it but I am starting to hate the dammn thing.
Just tought I would mention that at a preliminary consultation a few weeks ago, my radiotherapy doctor told me I could have little stickers or somthing like that if I didn't want to have the blue dot tattoos (which I definitely don't). I hate the idea of having to go through the rest of my life permantly marked as a cancer patient and having to dress to conceal blue dots on my body on hot summer days. So if the idea of the tattoos does bother you - as it does me - make sure you ask about the alternative temporary way of having your body marked.
Good luck with the rest of your chemo and the radiotherapy too. Janet
