Hi Hun,

So pleased all went well for you today and glad surgeon happy with you!!

Are you like a Smurf?? 
Here whenever and keep taking the painkillers,like I said I found paracetamols more than enough to keep discomfort at bay.

Have a good nights sleep and enjoy being waited on!!

Day 2 done and back again tomorrow for 3rd one plus radiographer chat to see how I'm going!!

WOW you are lucky I looked like a Smurf and Wes weekng blue lol,

That's how I was,no pain but bruised and some of the blue dye is still on my boob after all these weeks!!

Radiotherapy going fine apart from my arms aching but what a nightmare this morning,took 3 hours round trip for a 12 minutes appointment.... 

So pleased you are doing so well!!! Just think it's gone now and just the mop up of the radiotherapy and the tablets to take!!

Love Jackie x

Hi there all

i am still a nice shade of turquoise and have been told it will be a long time before it disappears. Had my CT scan on Monday for radiotherapy and got my 3 tattoos! Will be starting my radiotherapy on 31 October for 15 sessions. Also have over an hour's journey each way to the hospital. Looking forward to getting on with the radiotherapy now and put it all behind me.

Been on Anastrazole now for over four weeks and apart from a few hot flushes all seems good. Have to have a DEXA bone scan on 28 October to check how my bones are looking.

All in all it has been an eventful summer and diagnosed unexpectedly from a routine mammogram. I am feeling so lucky and I have a great team of people around me at the hospital.

Lets all keep in touch and follow each other's progress.

Love Mary xx

Wow funny how it affects us all differently, I kept looking for the blue but nothing haha 

my goodness that's a long journey for just 12mins!! Why are your arms aching... the pole?? 
 

Thank you yes I'm even contemplating going to work next week, two weeks is making me feel like a fraud and I should be doing work not watching Netflix lol 

Hope your arms ease up, it's not like you've not had enough to deal with!! 
 

Big hugs

Hi Mary,

So pleased you are doing well!! Yes a bit of my boob is still blue....

Glad everything is moving on for you,I've just done day 4 of radiotherapy and all going well,and having been slapping the cream on about 3 times a day as don't want the burn on it....

What a summer we've all had but are now coming through it all together eh!!!

Take care 

love Jackie x

Yes you ploughing through this!!! I hope I do the same.  Not looking forward to the pole already haha I bet those 2-3 mins feel like 30mins!, 

What a shame nothing is close by, are you driving yourself?  I don't drive so will have to rely on friends and family giving me lifts x
