Treatment 7 done!

1 minute read time.

Had my second week of CMF today - one more cycle to go!   No recurrence yet of the terrible sickness week thank goodness - touch wood!

Had a bit of back ache today and a tender spot around the back which has felt better as the day goes on.  I find it difficult with these sorts of things - I surely got occasional aches and pains before all this kicked off, but now it of course gets magnified a hundred fold into something more serious!  I have to tell myself constantly that something concerning would probably not get better and persist instead. 

The breast care nurse gave me an interesting leaflet today - they're trying to help people coming towards the end of their treatment by teaming up with Breast Cancer Care to put on workshops over a month on things like diet, intimacy, adapting and adjusting, that sort of stuff.  Sounds an excellent idea to me - I've been looking into this sort of stuff already but it'd be good for women who haven't yet and also be interesting to see what the experts say!

In yet more news, I'm setting up a fundraising group of volunteers for Macmillan in the local area to where I live (Northfield, Birmingham) so if anyone reading this is interested let me know!
