Yes, I was in training for my 9th marathon which was going to be in the US. It’ll be there next year. I’ve not been running since my diagnosis, mainly because chemo has zapped my energy and I have a PICC. Wouldn’t want that to get out of place with the movement. I have an exercise bike at home instead and use that when I’m feeling energetic. It’s odd that they recommend light exercise to combat chemo fatigue but I think it works. I have two little dogs who I walk twice per day so that gets me out and about too. 

 RedRuth84  perhaps satisfy your chocolate cravings with a high cocoa content chocolate that’s at least 70% cocoa solids (dark chocolate). These have less sugar and the high cocoa content has lots of antioxidants which are good for you.

I was just getting back to running from an earlier surgery this year and just back to a gentle 5km, when this hit.   I am trying walk often and have been fortunate enough not to have too much fatigue. I have been sleeping a lot but I slept so badly i the couple of weeks before the chemo because of anxiety, I think I am catching up.  I was hoping to get out for a run after the surgery but the chemo followed too quickly. I only pootle so I think if I do have the energy, I'd like to try but I may just be kidding myself.  It just really help my mental health to get out.

Wow 8 marathons! That is some achievement! Good luck with the bike and maintaining your fitness. It has probably put you in a good position physically and the training for marathons has probably helped you mentally too.  
I bet your dogs bring you a lot of chill time and pleasure too. 

Thanks Chirl  that's a good idea. 

I had surgery first - a lumpectomy and partial reconstruction with a LICAP flap. Smudge24  thank you for the tip. I'll get those. I'm having 3 lots of EC (once every 3 weeks) and then the same number and frequency of Docetaxel. What have you had? 

I also had surgery first , also a lumpectomy. I got a PICC line cover from the hospital but b it still slips without a tubigrip type thing underneath. Get someone to measure your arm first!

I’ve also had lumpectomy. I’m having 12 weeks of paclitaxel (weekly). 5 done so far. This is the link to the covers I got in a range of colours:

I got large because I didn’t want them to be too tight- I’m a size 12 and my arms aren’t huge but not thin either. Medium just felt tight so I sent back without problems. They have a rubber grip at the top. I also have a shower cover which is great.

Oh no that’s not good. How are you now? Good luck for Thursday. 

Thank you for this. 

Good luck with starting chemo. I think you said it was around now. 

Wondering how everyone is? I had a blip last week, they cancelled my chemo because my liver ALT was too high at 140. It’s not need added to the end, just omitted so I’m in for number 7 of 12 today as the levels have improved. I have fingers crossed that it doesn’t happen again. I haven’t been drinking alcohol, have a healthy diet and do 2-3 long walks a day with the dog so can’t see what I can do more to help. 

Oh no. I'm a bit surprised that they aren't going to add it onto the end.  I hope today's treatment goes OK for you. 

I start EC tomorrow. I'm hoping it's all going to be OK. I'm hoping to still do the school run walks morning and night. I've decided not to cold cap. I don't think I'll tolerate it well and the extra time and care for my hair I don't think I can manage with the kids and everything else.
