Hi everyone,
Thanks for your advice. I'm just going to have to take it one day at a time with the diarrhoea. Makes life that little bit harder when you have to second guess everything you put in your mouth! The doctor doesn't like me taking grastro stop because it may cause constipation. Vicious cycle!!
And yes after I finish the last 8 Taxol I have 5 weeks of radiation!! But someone told me that there are side effects with this too.. oh my.... I'm so over it already!!
I'm in awe at those of you who have completed their treatments. Doesn't feel like its ever going to end. The AC was really hard and now Taxol!
Ive been a bit down so I've enrolled into YMCA Encore exercise class for breast cancer women.
Hoping it gives me a chance to meet other women. Not sure where else I can join.
My friends are great but they don't understand how hard it is mentally & physically.
im sure you all have felt alone at times. I've driven my poor husband crazy with my dependence on him.. Now I'm on Taxol he has gone back to work so I'm home alone, too much time to think.
But my daughter is expecting her second child in 5 weeks and I'm hoping I'm well and able to enjoy the birth of my third grandchild.
Anyhow that's enough whining from me.
I just want to be normal again and have my life back.
