I feel like Ive won the lottery!!

As I look back to the beginning of chemo, I will admit to cravings, I drank lots of ginger beer, and really craved cinnamon donunts....I would get hubby to get them, I would break them up and eat little bits.  Noiw i know that both of these things were not really good for me, but my wonderful breast care nurse, siad to me, take this time for yourself, and it you want those things, have them. You will get back, to your usual diet in good time.  Although I always ate healthy foods, I am much more conscious about it now. My philsophy was expect the worse, and  I was surprised that it was not as bad, as I had imagined.  I had my routine before and after chemo.

Radiation for 6 weeks, I did get red and sore towards the end, but with some great Gel o net (dressings) that cleared up quickly.  Now on arimidex.for the next 5 years. Again not quite what I imagined, only a pain having to go every day, and getting that special  arm up above my head..

Time will pass quickly, and you will be here reasurring another newly dianosed lady.
