BAD NEWS PLEASE HELP ABSOLUTELY DISTRAUGHT

HI there @Sam09 - please don't ever, ever say or think that you are pathetic and don't feel as though you need to excuse yourself !

To receive a bc diagnosis is frightening enough but then to be told that it is secondary with mets in your liver is so confronting and shakes you to the core..

You feel as though your life plans have been taken away from you.

Whilst I have not had chemo this time around, I cannot speak about the effects of paclitaxel but Kayvie, Primek and Afraser have all given different accounts of the side effects they felt.

I had 6 x rounds of chemo 3 weeks apart in 2003 and found that there would be some days where I felt like I  had been hit by a truck but I was fortunate enough that I was able to go for walks and take my 5 and 2 year old sons to the park.

So, walk your little puppy on days you feel well enough to.

The fresh air may even help with your general spirit.

I believe that the most recent study is that if you are able to, it is best to keep active immediately following chemotherapy. The wonderful BCNA Admin ladies could confirm this.

Sending you hugs and light.
