Good morning Lovelies,
I have completed my 4 AC treatments and had my 4th dose of Taxol last Wednesday 15.01.'14.
Since beginning Taxol, my right nostril has been internally bleeding and have headaches when I am not normally a headache person.
Last night, (Sunday 19.01.'14) was so achey and sore in my joints that no massaging seemed to help, so I took two panadiene forte tabs before sleep.
I had taken 2 panadol osteo tabs at 3pm which didn't really help but topped up with panadiene forte, I slept like a baby and woke up pain free. Had 2 more panadol osteo tabs before giving bloods at Day Unit.
This combination worked for me as I had stopped all pain killers after completing AC
I was also told that Taxol would be "easier" on my physical body.
Didn't know how grievous the joint pain would feel.
My nails are thriving on Revitanail nail strengthener. Best they've ever been in this lifetime.
My hair is growing back too. I didn't even notice with all the other distractions happening.
Beautiful Vanessa from Optimal Intimates will visit this afternoon to drop off my 2nd Rosalie bra.
Vanessa is extremely patient and shows such vigilance in finding the exact,perfectly fitted bra and prostheses.
If you're in Sydney, please contact Vanessa as her true compassion and experience means your fittings, in own home, will lift your spirit and maybe even ease some of your pain.
It did for me. Took the pain away completely until yesterday.
I now know I can have the pain killers after speaking with Chemo nurse, Carmel. Carmel said, "It's okay to have them occassionally."
They just gave the panadol osteo a boost, as I stopped panadol osteo completely 5 weeks ago.
Dr Oz reckons that chamomile tea helps relax our whole bodies down too.
I have ginger tea so will try this suggestion as well.
Am using Neat Feat morning and night to prevent dry, cracked heels and feet.
All is well, all is well, all is well.
Happy Big Peace Day, always posted with love and gratitude from Swami Shoonyananda Saraswati. :-) <3
