My heads been a bit , ohh i dunno how to describe it. Since the start of this journey, after the initial shock had sunk in...i had felt very up beat and positive ... I know the worst of it's behind me.. Nearing the end of treatment (Roll on November) But these last few weeks all I want to do is cry (I've not given into it cos I know I really have no reason to be this way) </p>
<p> Stupid dreams, about people I've not seen or thought about in years (some going back to childhood)... </p>
<p>Not telling people how I am feeling because they have enough to worry about without me adding.. But this being strong all the time.. Kidding on that I'm fine is just hard to do just now...</p>
<p>i need to get rid of the pity party going on in my head because I know there are worse things happening to other people.. </p>
<p>sorry for the whinging blog...</p>
<p>Ok Tomorrow is a new day.......</p>

<p>I recieved a phone call 2 weeks ago about going for a medical because I am claiming ESP. Having heard all the horror stories and things being said I cant begin to tell you how stressed I was about going for this. </p>
<p>My appointment was today, by the time I reached the examination center I wasn't really worth a button. I was called in after 10 mins in the waiting room and can honestly say I was shocked. The Nurse was mortified that I had to attend and said that anyone being treated for cancer shouldn't be called. She couldn't apologise enough and said they are actually changing the rules and that clearly it had been an error that I was called in.</p>
<p>Home exhausted after having to trail into town but so relieved that I dont have the stress of work to face at this point.</p>
<p> Hope this helps anyone else in the same position</p><div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="https://community.macmillan.org.uk/aggbug?PostID=416320&AppID=31647&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">Former Memberhttps://community.macmillan.org.uk/members/formermemberTiredness....https://community.macmillan.org.uk/cancer-blogs/b/lainey_b/posts/tiredness2011-03-21T10:47:05Z2011-03-21T10:47:05Z<p>Hi, I was just wondering if anyone has any tips for me. I finished Radiotherapy at the end of October . Now on herceptin and things seem to be going well apart from being extremely tired most of the time... I am ok if i don't go running around like i did before this all kicked off.... </p>
<p> I know other people at the same stage of treatment who are back in work while i am sitting there thinking i couldn't do a 2 hour shift on my feet let alone the 9 hours I normally did...</p>
<p> Just interested to know if whats happening is 'normal' ?</p>
