1 minute read time.

I woke up yesterday, and lay there for a bit, mentally scanning down my body to see how I felt. I discovered that it felt as though I had a mild hangover! So I took the morning nice and slowly, aiming to wander over and do some admin at the festival after lunch.

I felt as though my skin was ''greasy'' ... anyone else had that feeling? And I had an odd taste in my mouth but nothing that I couldn't distract myself from with drinks or mints. Walking around made me tired, so I did as little of that as possible! ;)

By 8pm I was very tired so came home and put my feet up, munched some food, watched some tv, bed before midnight. I have to say I had a huge nightmare that woke me up at 2am and kept me awake for a while afterwards, but I do tend to have quite intense dreams anyway, so maybe that was all like a 'release' of tension etc??

This morning, not quite so ''greasy'' sensation. I have been very good at remembering to take temperature and my pills etc. Today I am off to be assessed for the line they are putting in next Wednesday. Then taking my teens over to the festival to get their tickets swapped for wristbands etc, and see how long I decide to hang out there later.

I am still sleepy so I *will* be taking things nice and slowly!

    Hi Cariad,

    Glad your side effects from your chemo wernt to severe

    and that your taking things nice and easy. Your like me I have intensive dreams every night and can remember every one. Its amazing the detail your brain remembers

    the next day. But I have got used to it.

    So heres hoping you still can manage your treatment,

    and the side effects are the same.

    You look after yourself and the kids.

    Take care and be safe Big Hugs Love Sarsfield.xx

  • Perhaps we should form a 'weird dream club' because going to sleep now is like visitng a multiplex cinema! No, seriously, the drugs you're taking do mess with the mind. No lasting effects so don't worry about them just now.

    Take care,
