Next challenge will be getting there for it, some scumbag rear ended my car in the early hours of this morning and because it was an old car, it's being written off. Grrrr

Sort one problem...

  • Nooo, this was with the Oncologist and I’ve been discharged back to the breast care unit! 

    Unless anything goes wrong, the next appointment is with the breast care specialist in August.

    And breathe...

     

     

     

  • Thank you. Your turn to overcome it now, we’ll all be hete for you!

  • Thanks guys . consultant said it's long road but he thinks I can do it .this chemo does seem go on and on . keeping busy sometimes is challenging.but still resting.i was speaking to my boss saying I don't feel I have a purpose now meaning I was so used being super busy going work etc .but I have a purpose it's beating this illness and getting better .I think once Xmas out way .I'll be having 4 the treatment and awaiting more scans to see if surgery possible .so that's my goal for 1st op .

  • I’m surprised I was discharged nd still had 1 RT session t have.:-/ Means I have now jumped ahead of u cos I see my breast care surgeon at the breast clinic in April. Bizarre how everywhere works different ain’t it:-)

    anywhose- how was work x

  • Work was OK. Only There three hours so not too bad. 

     

    Our lot seem to leave you to settle down about a year post surgery before you see the consultant again unless of course there is a problem. Supposedly that lets tissue settle down and if anything corrective needs to be done it won’t still be changing so a proper decision can be made. 

     

    Just glad to be out of Oncology. 

  • Tigercub when I went for my seeds t b put in prior to surgery there was a lady in the waiting room having the same procedure. She had been on chemo over 9 moths to shrink her tumour. We discovered were both having our op on the same day ( she was 70). On day of op we sat next to each other nd chatted. 

    I was at my local shopping centre today nd heard my name being called - I turned around nd it was her:-) we had a coffee and catch up- she is doing brilliant. She had RT too although I never once saw her.

    although we don’t choose this we sure can do it. 

    Take care x

     

  • You can do this, you can beat this. Shrink the ****** so it can be operated on!

  • Hi I intend to . started chemotherapy 20th October so hopefully should done some by now 

  • Yeah rileyroo no more treatment! I actually felt worse after treatment as you and Sandra know. I hope it goes smoothly for you. How did it feel to go to work? It's turning really cold so make sure you all keep warm. Tummy still queasy but am more human today. Sandra the pains will subside - try not to let it get you down. I know easier said than done as one gets so sick of it all. You're one step further after each chemo session Tigercub and you got this. Went and got daughters pressie. Got very tired - shopping centre was madness. Daughter is 18 on Saturday and first time going out to a nightclub. Dunno how ready I am for this... I got discharged 6 weeks after my last treatment - bizarre how differently it works. Onwards ladies....
