Some people say the strangest things!
I'm dealing with some tendonitis from Arimidex. I am wearing kinesiology tape on both my wrist and my leg. Ridiculously when I go to my physio they only seem to have the tape in bright colours - currently hot pink camo on my wrist and black cow spots on my leg. At least it doesn't have flashing lights!! So I'm walking (actually limping) up the street yesterday and a man about 30 years old (so not a little kid who simply doesn't know any better) yells out about the tape and how weird it looks. I already felt a bit self conscious but everyone within 50 metres turned and stared at us. I told myself that they were looking at him because he was the one yelling out but I just wanted to disappear. I haven't felt this way since I had no hair or eyebrows or eyelashes. Pretty sure he must be on the Autism spectrum (if not he's just a total idiot) and I keep telling myself he is definitely living with more problems than me. But what I hate is that this bloody fluorescent tape has made my issues SO OBVIOUS!! Everyone I meet asks me about it and I think I need to invent some incredible absailing misadventure, snow skiing accident, or something exotic to explain it because it always comes back to my BC. Next physio visit I'm taking my own BEIGE tape and demanding that they use that. I'm so over being the girl with BC - I just want to get on with my life.
