What's happened to the love?

Hi again I must say I'm over chemo but feel as though I don't have a choice so just have to soldier on. I can't imagine ever being the same person as I was before bc as so much has changed, some good, some not so good. My goal is to feel happy, healthy and safe again. Thanks Paula, I'm going to get some replens as well as some silk and give these a go. Anything is worth a try. Lee it's funny how you say you floated through diagnosis and treatment etc and feel that it is crashing down around you now as that is how I have been until last week. I had a shocking week and really struggled to cope. I'm going to ask for some counselling when I go in for chemo next week. I wonder because it all happens so fast that you don't have time to have a reality check until later on in the process. I suppose it stands to reason that it's going to take longer than the actual treatment to get the residue of chemo out of your system. A girlfriend who finished treatment a year ago is still struggling with the effects of the chemo on her body still. Throw in menopause and boy what a cocktail! I think the way forward is to talk about things, get advice on what others before us have tried and to be kind to ourselves. Fortunately I'm not scared to ask questions of my medical professionals. My brother comes with me to all my appointments and what I don't ask he does. I'm sure things will get better and easier. It will just take some time xox
