Half way!
hey pink sisters, it's been a while! Hope you are all comfortable and had a good hard laugh today ??
Yesterday I had my final FEC!!! Yay. I hate that shit.... I spent three nights in hospital for second infusion and will stay two nights this round. SAY YES TO DRUGS! After my first round my darling oncologist reminded me that there was no medal at the end for not taking drugs so I've taken them all and made my life much easier. I did find that second round made me much more tired and omg the constipation was hideous....so I guess we'll see what's in store for the next three weeks.
Then a change of plan and I'm doing 9 weeks of Taxol. Any tips on beating that monster would be appreciated.
i am feeling like I've reached the point where I am sick. My range of symptoms and side effects have cornered me into admitting that I'm not really ok anymore. Whilst nothing is major I have enough small, daily problems that prevent me from feeling normal. This is my new normal. I have shifted the bar and now use my adapted version as a measure for what I can and can't do. For example : low grade nausea, head ache, light lymphodema and cording? Sure, good enough to go to work! That's a good day. I'm hoping that Taxol will have less impact and my normal bar can be shifted again!
Wishing you all the spirit of warriors this week. With love, KJ xo
