Hello Babygirl, welcome to the forum.  I can only echo abc's comment - wow!  By golly, you have been through it, whilst being pregnant and having your lovely baby at the same time -  you have my admiration.  You have been through so much it's no wonder your feelings are all over the place, and of course the early menopause is not helping either.  Rest assured that most of us on here do understand that it takes time to adjust, and for the after effects of treatment to diminish, so if you ever need to talk there is always someone on here to lend a sympathetic ear.  (If people tell you that you should be getting back to normal just let them read some of the posts on here, darling, might make them think again!)

I wish you luck for your forthcoming surgery, please let us know how you get on, meanwhile take care of yourself and your beautiful daughter.

God bless, Hazel xx

Hi abc, just want to wish you good luck with your chemo, and your op in Feb. 

Take care, Hazel xx

PS. Like your avatar, a good outlook to have!

Thanks for that I am gearing up for round 2 on the 7th December. Whilst the forum is useful it also puts your own situation in perspective when you read many of the posts. If anything I'm just amazed that there is not more of a public outcry as to why so many people are getting cancer something is not right. 

I also think considering people get shock of diagnosis then start treatment quickly , the whole medication hospital visit regime, telling people, thinking about your possible death, lack of sleep, thinking about finances etc it's a lot to deal with in say 8 weeks I think we forget how strong we have to be.

At the moment I'm ok just on hair watch as I can tell it feels different even after just over a week and I have not had time to see wig lady yet.

Nice to hear from you Nicky

God bless.  Nicky

Ah, yes, the hair!  I have had 3 rounds of 6 chemos over the last 20 or so years, hair just got very thin with the first and third, but lost it all with the second, which was a much stronger brew!   Actually I felt quite liberated, just bunged on the wig each morning instead of having to fiddle about with my own, always wayward, hair!  I found that a minor problem, to be honest, as I never take very kindly to chemo unfortunately, makes me quite ill.  

Hope you find a nice wig to see you through!  (I still have mine, just in case, it's sitting on a stand on top of my wardrobe with a hat on and sometimes gives visitors a bit of a start, looks at first like someone poking their head through the top!)

Take care and good luck.
