Hi all, well this week has seen a big improvement in terms of general symptoms. I am on day 11 now and the indigestion type feelings have settled down a lot. I had a curry yesterday which was a little hotter than I realised at first it was going to be - but it was too yummy to leave - despite the tingly burny sensations I was getting. Luckily nothing untoward happened as a result, and today I've felt pretty good. I'm taking it a day at a time, not being very experienced obviously at this sort of thing, but 11 days in I am feeling more normal than before, so hopefully this means my blood levels are back on the up!
The next big thing is the big hair chop. I've been putting it off as much as possible, but I do want it short before it starts coming out (it's shoulder length and quite thick at the moment), and this weekend was picked as my second course is coming up in just over a week. It's a bit of a scary thing seeing as all my lovely hair will be disappearing for possibly months and months...there is an element of control if we do it rather than the drugs though...but it'll still be scary!!
