This little piggy went to market

Well troopers,

this is so bloody annoying and the last straw, I hope! Today 14 weeks after last chemo treatment my big toenails fall off!

It is the things that treatment takes from you that you have to keep reminding yourself that your life is worth all these inconveniences.

hang in there all

this little biggy is staying home, under the air con it so hot! Or is it the tamoxifen I will never know.

  • Hi Brenda,

    it would be easier if it was winter. I have had black nail polish on now since August, I appear very trendy, if only they knew. Hope you are feeling well.

  • I keep rubbing my hands and toes in as the skin is coming off them. Hoping I don't get any infections or lose nails. Absolutely no sun for me on nails. Just visited the neighbour down the road with my full shoes on and my brolly with both arms tucked up on the handle out of the sun. Looks a little odd but then most of my neighbours are finding out I am odd any way lol.

  • Such bad luck, I was so grateful all my nails stayed put (even if they did go black, brown, grey and chalk white!). As you say not such a big thing in the scheme of things, but it's the small things that are somehow harder. Almost certainly the last hoorah of the chemo, so good luck and best wishes for a rapid re growth!
