Chemotherapy
Hi my name is Janene & I was diagnosed with triple negative breast grade 3 on the 18th September. And had my first cycle of chemotherapy on the 26th October. The first 2 days after I was ok but really feeling now really fatigued very achy all over but no nausea as yet. How long does this last? I’m going to be having chemotherapy every 14 days for 4 cycles the weekly for 12 cycles. Heat packs are my best friend at the moment.

Huge head - need help!
I have always had problems finding hats big enough to fit my big melon and usually have to settle for ones that just sit high on my head. Will be 👨‍🦲 in a couple of weeks and have found 4 turban type things that fit but the wig stocking I tried was far too tight and advertised bamboo caps to wear under hats are at least 3 to 4 cms too small. I will need a soft wide brimmed sun hat that will come right down over my head as well. I am not one of you beautiful young ones who rock the no hair look so this isn’t making it any easier to face up to the inevitable. I would love to hear from anyone who has the same problem and has found a solution. 😘👒
