I had my last chemotherapy yesterday and I thought I'd feel elated. Being treated at an outreach centre the nurse apologised for not having a bell for me to ring but I don't feel like ringing bells.
It still seems like a very long road to travel with further surgery and radio therapy taking me into at least June.
Am I unusual in this or are you feeling the same?
I do feel some relief and hope that once I get through the next couple of weeks I may feel less tired but it certainly doesn't feel how I expected. Is this normal?
I feel a bit deflated and still find it difficult to look forward which I thought would be easier at this point.
