Triple Negative BC

Hi ladies, I hope your all feeling as positive as possible even though it's an up hill battle to do so at times.....I am day 6 after chemo & I must say I am thankful that i've basically sailed though number 1...i've had a few joint pains in mainly my feet and ankles and ulcerated mouth which panadol rapid soluble is marvelous for it :-)  I've just had to take all my jewelery off as my ear rings and neckless even though gold is causing a very itchy welt of a rash :-s  Oh & the scap....hahaha...I have to laugh to myself about it otherwise I may crash & burn at the thought that my hair folicules dying...the itching is unbelievable I now know how a flee ridden dog feels :-D  I'm not actually sure when the hair starts to fall out but I too will be doing the number 1 or 4 with the clippers when it's time,  I think the chemo nurse said at around day 10 it all starts to happen & then I'll cross that bridge when I come to it though!   The test results are back from the familial genetic group it only took 2 weeks but I don't find out the results until September 1st a great way to start spring off isn't it. I could have found out last thursday but I had my 1st round of chemo so that was that.  I'm not too sure how I feel about finding out the results but I think it's best considering I have 4 daughters and 2 sons for their sakes to find out for sure, but once again I'll cross that bridge when it arrives!  I'm insistant that I stay as positive as can be as I don't intend to let this major hiccup bring me down it's just another learning curve in the road of life and I do intend to learn from the experience as much as I can!   I hope you girls are the same!

Brightest Blessings,  Susan xx
