Who else can't sleep?

Okay - I had the chemo and it will continue at this stage unless it is deemed to get to an unsafe level. I've got it worse in one foot but I think I have some pre-existing nerve issues in that area. I'm wearing socks to bed tonight to hopefully stop the toes getting cold and bugging me in the middle of the night.

@Sister how did you go today? Was your dosage modified or was the whole session postponed? Interested to see what your oncologist decided to do. My feet have had a bad day.  :s Is your neuropathy worse in one foot or the same in both?

@Kiwi Angel - ah Tassie. Enjoy Steph. Relax and rejuvenate. You've been through a lot and celebrate the end of that badass called chemo. x

@SoldierCrab I LOVE Darwin! Went last year as part of our 3 month road trip. Thought I could live there for sure. although obviously went at the best time of year. So gorgeous and so close to Litchfield and Kakadu....God's Country for sure. I fell in love with all the indigenous history through there. x

@"Kiwi Angel" NOOOOO! Not the wineries!!!!  :o

Thanks @kmakm
I will post a sunny picture from Darwin ..... look after each other this week girls 

@Kiwi Angel have a great holiday.

@kmakm thanks. Hopefully we leave the airport soon - delayed 3 hours so far in Sydney due to heavy fog in Launceston. That’s 3 wineries I have missed out on!!  :D

@"Kiwi Angel" @SoldierCrab Bon voyage! I hope you both have a wonderful break at opposite ends of the country. Do post a pic here. Travel safe.

@Sister Wow, No 9, well done. Champion. K xox

Hi there @Sister ,,,yes  awake  through the  wee  hours  again. As  soon as the glowing  numbers  on the clock  say 5.00 I  feel I can legitimately  leave my torture rack (also  known as  a bed). I too suffer  from  severe  peripheral neuropathy  as well as I have scleroderma which causes severe Reynaud's syndrome in my hands  as well as feet. The cold is a nightmare as it  sets  off the Reynaud's which in turn is excruciatingly  painful because  of  the nerve damage. I sleep with knitted gloves to help with the  hands and use a heat bag at my feet. Nuke for three minutes  in the microwave, and it stays warm for hours in the bed. For me the  problem is keeping my hands and feet warm, without warming the rest of me too much or the  night sweats leave me drenched, but that's another story.
