Hi
I had my first chemotherapy treatment yesterday and it seems ok I laid there waiting for something awful to happen and other than my eyes running continually and feeling pretty shattered I am ok.It was nowhere near as bad as I imagined.
My next session is a week on Monday but it is only for two of the drugs so shouldnt be too bad.The anti nausea stuff seemed to work whilst I felt sick last night and a bit today I havent been.I havent had my hair cut and the nurse said to expect it to go next weekend it seemed silly to waste money having it cut.I am going wig shopping on Saturday with three of my best girl friends lets hope I wont need one but everyone seems to think I will.
Christmas was good if a bit quiet I am getting used to catheterising my stoma and can go 2 1/2 hours during the day and 3 hours at night if I am careful about what I drink in the evening.HRT seems to be working and I feel a lot better than a few weeks ago .Thats it really
