As the last post said, I felt pretty down last week. I felt better nearer the end of the week and feel back to my old self now.
I do think being off for so long will be difficult though, but I have gone to a tai chi class which I enjoyed and will attend that as often as I feel fit enough and obviously at the right end of the month due to low immune system etc.
As for how I feel physically I feel very well, back to, if I didn't know I had this condition I wouldn't believe it. The only thing I have experienced is aches in my joints particularly knees, not painful but ache. I'm wondering if its the chemo working in the bone. I'm probably stupidly wrong about that, does anyone know?.
This is the last week of the monthly cycle and I visit hospital a week today for pre chemo bloods, then, all being well , second dose on Wednesday 1st May.
I hope everyone about to start or currently undergoing treatment Is well and coping with the stresses.
Take care all
