its been a while
Hi All
Life has been so busy since I was last on. I only just managed occasionally to go near the computer for nothing more than checking my emails and mandatory reporting to CentreFink (not a spelling error) I wont get started on that one.
finally a week after finishing my radiation (25 of them) They zapped away at my SCF + Axilla + IMC c DIBH ,after the first week instead of listing all the target spots I'd just say left breast and surrounds, so much easier. I hope life is starting to slow down and I can recover, though it doesn't feel like it at the moment. Besides the burns and the dressings which I cant do until grandson goes to bed and it takes about half an hour to do then it all falls apart through the night, do it all again mid morning the next day and I have to keep re positioning it throughout the day.
don't know why but Apparently the side affects I have developed are uncommon, I'm just weird my voice is croaky and the heartburn and reflux is awful as for swallowing, it's liquids and mush in small amounts for me, till it stops hurting. What is normal is, I'm pink red and brown, wrinkled and blistered from the voice box and shoulder down to under my boob and across from part of the right boob to the other side of my armpit. The side effects of the chemo and surgery I hope will lessen with time, the numb feet and finger tips and the Lymphodema who knows.
So far the Anastrozole has only given me the expected grief which I am learning to adapt to. Flushes, aches, mood swings, headaches.
I will keep moving forward, I have done the optometrist and replaced my glasses, started to sort the dental issues and now booked in for all the other regular health checks that got put on hold, by the time I catch up on all those it will be back to the start with a new one added.
I am trying to stay positive. Maybe one day soon I will be right to go back to work but at this rate the tax season will be finished and my best income period will be over, the worst part of being a seasonal, that is if I haven't lost all my clients.
I am going to book myself some me time to get back on here more often and see how everyone is fairing.
Till next time
