Hi there Natalia. I see we both can't sleep! It's nice to connect with someone in the same place as me. Sort of. I am 6 weeks post mastectomy which was very traumatic. I am due to visit the chemo suite on Monday to show me around before I start chemo. Have you not been offered this option? This will either reassure me or make me more anxious. Let's hope it is a positive experience.I can get back to you and let you know if you would like.I can't give you any advice as I too have turned to the Internet for help. I know the side effects are scary but they tell you the worst case scenario and it doesn't mean we will be affected by them all. As for hair loss I think that is a given and we will just have to cope. I do know that the team who will look after me are kind company people and they understand our feelings and are there to help.keep in touch if you would like and I will let you know how it goes.

Sending you a hug ( we all need one of those,)

I meant compassionate! 

Fluff1 probably it's a little bit to early for me for showing me the chemo suit. Because I don't know yet my chemo schedule. But probably It will be an option.

I'm really trying to be positive and optimistic. With hair loss I'm a little bit disappointed, because I was growing back them from pixie cut from last few years, I spend a lot of money for Hair care products and now I will probably loose them. But from other side for me the way of thinking ' it's only hair, they will grow back' it's helping. You need to look on the bright side, right now you can find very nice wigs, head scarfs or if you're 100% confident you can rock the bold head look:) 

I know that all the people in oncology, nurses and other people working there are angels, so they are helpful and will support us during our treatment. So that's a good thing

Sure if you want to stay in touch send me a message:) I'm here.

I'm sending you a big hug too:)!

Yes positive is the way to go as hard as it is. I am definitely going to put wig and hair covering on my list of things to put in place before chemo. I hope you get your appointment through soon. I will let you know how I get on as I have said.
