&lt;p&gt;I have not been well since&amp;nbsp;having my last chemo on 22 Sept but things now starting to get better, apart from&amp;nbsp;the fatigue.&amp;nbsp; Had my Planning Session on 8 October and got my tattoos (7 in total).&amp;nbsp; Start R/Therapy on the 18 Oct and this will last for 3 weeks.&amp;nbsp; Not sure what to expect in the way of side effects etc so if anybody has any tips that would be great.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Started to feel a bit weepy yesterday.&amp;nbsp; Not sure why really but my scars, tattoos and sunken area of boob (where tissue was removed) just seem to be there right in my face everytime I undress.&amp;nbsp; Probably just a phase (one of many we have to go through in this long journey) and will hopefully get better.&amp;nbsp; Let me know if anybody else went through this.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Going out for Sunday Lunch today so that will be a nice treat.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hugs to all&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Just wanted to say that I had my last chemo session on the 22/9/2010. &amp;nbsp;Not suffering too badly from side effects as yet although do feel a bit washed out today and have sore throat. Normally have an injection in my stomach day after chemo but decided against it this time due to the side effects. &amp;nbsp;Just going to take things nice and easy for next few days then will have blood test to make sure all still ok.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Really sad to say goodbye to my chemo nurses as they have all been terrific and looked after me so well as I have had a few problems i.e caught an infection after first chemo and ended up in hospital for a week then had an allergic reaction to third session which put me on antihistamines and steroids - hopefully that won&amp;#39;t happen this time.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Next up will be radiotherapy. Just waiting for an appointment to go for my planning session.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Love to you all&lt;/p&gt;
