I live in Melbourne. I have support from my family and I can contact the breast nurses when I need them and I know there is more support out there. I did loose it and had a cry the day I found out I had a blood clot, and was so close to call the breast nurse but I couldn't find the number because I put it in a safe place but I forgot where the safe place was. I sort of got over it because then I kept my mind busy trying to figure out where I put the number. I found it the next day on my fridge!
I am so worried of getting sick and picking up an infection so I have stayed home the last 3 weeks. My only outings are to my appointments. My 2nd chemo is on Tuesday, then I'll have 2 more to go.
I really love this blog because I can talk to people like yourself and support each other by discussing our treatments and so on. It does make me feel better.
I really hope things go smoothly for you from now on and thanks for everything, you have no idea how talking to you helps me.
