1st time blog

Thanku very much for your message. It was extremely informative & Ive read it a few times now. I had a break from this site for a few days coz I was getting very anxious, reading so much about chemo. My surgeon said right from the start, that coz Im 43yrs, I should do chemo no matter what the cancer results are. I told her then, I wouldnt.

You really have given me a balanced way of looking at all of this. Im not keen on scarves or hats either. My mum's been wearing a wig coz she has thin hair since her early 50s. She occasionally complains about it on a hot day but most of the time its fine. She'd be a good help to me getting one & showing me how to look after it. The fact that there's more collagen in a younger persons body is a good point too.

Im trying not to think about my 1st appt with Onc on Mon. I start to panick but I suppose Im going to have to read more & learn more before appt so I know what to ask. I hope the Onc is a good one & has all the info I need to decide properly.

I appreciate your honesty on your chemo experience. I'll read more of what you have written about it.

Thanks Justine
