@Sam09 ... Really happy you coped well with your chosen treatment.
I know, for me, it was a case of couldnt wait to start chemo. We are all different though & choose to go different paths with our treatment & what we feel is right for us.
I saw the chemo drugs as little pacmen with their munching mouths going thru my system munching the cancer cells as they went & I have chosen, now that chemo is over, to take anastrozole (arimidex) daily &, as my mets are in my bones, I also take calcium & vitamin D daily.
I also choose to be active (I run, 5km weekly at parkrun & also to participate in official events like City2Sea) & to eat as organically & healthily as I can. That is not to say I dont have cake or something considered equally naughty when the mood strikes me...
I consider myself very lucky that apart from chemo hairloss I have suffered relatively few side effects.
Keep up the positivety :) , I look for a postive in everything. For instance, when my hair fell out, (as much as I didnt want it to) I took the attitude - cool now I can just get up in the morning & put it on instead of spending 1/2 an hour washing, drying & styling it, more time for ME!!!
