Had 12 of 20 radiotherapies and aside from bleeding from my bladder, diaoriah (sp), fatigue and nausea I feel good! :D I have controlled most of the side effects with tablets.
I wish my partner and I had more friends and family nearby, it does feel as though most of the time we are in this alone, but its hard to make new friends at 50 and when you are ill 50% of the week. I am praying (don't know who to!) that when I get on my new tablets we can start having a bit of normal life again, and maybe meet some new people.
