Yesterday was my first chemo cycle. First of four EC doses. So far so good… I am extremely knackered and yesterday had a headache for most of the afternoon but honestly, I feel really lucky.
I have been told to expect that it will get worse over the next few days but there is a teeny tiny part of me that is thinking….but what if it doesn’t!!! (It will won’t it)
I start my injections tonight. I am not looking forward to that at all. But, I had them following a hysterectomy a few years ago and one of the lovely nurses at the hospital yesterday said these were no where near as bad at those so…. Should all be ok!
I am also very aware that at any point my side affects could get a lot worse and at some point over the next week or so, my hair will fall out; I really need to get some headscarf’s but have no idea where to even start looking for the right ones.
But on the whole and for now at least, I feel hopeful and grateful.
I had a lovely walk around town today, in the fresh air and it was lovely but it has lead to me now being in bed and about to nap!
